In the biblical temple, the innermost chamber was called 'the Holy of Holies'. This was the place where the Ark of the Covenant sat and G-d resided. Incidentally, the Western Wall, which is the last relic of the temple, formed one side of the holy of holies. Since only the High Priest was allowed there and only on the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) some ultra-orthodox Jews will not go near the wall for fear of judgement.
