I vaguely remember seeing in Mishnayos (probably second half of Moed, maybe Taanis - potentially in connection to where the Maamados said their Tefillos - but can't find it now) that there was a Shul within the Beis haMikdosh. I can't seem to find it on any of the floorplans though now. Can someone please confirm and provide a source?

    See the end of Tamid 4:3 - the Kohanim would read keriat shema and recite certain berachot in the lishkat hagazit.

    I recall a reference in mishna somewhere (perhaps Tamid or Yoma) to "חזן" or "סגן" which the commentaries there say refers to a synagogue worker. Of course, that there was a synagogue worker doesn't mean there was a synagogue in the usual sense.
