Hezkiah's Tunnel

Runs from just outside the Temple area (in the current southside excavations), to the Shiloah Pool in the City of David.
Hewn in the reign of King Hezekiah to bring water to the pool from the Gihon Spring (and also provided an escape route from the City in case of siege), just over 2700 years ago
