Hawzah News Agency- Two dozen demonstrators from the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) group were taking part in the demonstration in the street outside the entrance, yards from Centre Court on Monday morning.
Protesters brought a silver car riddled with bullet holes, accompanied by photographs of children who have been killed in Gaza.
They have accused the bank of complicity in alleged “genocide” in Gaza.
Placards reading ‘Barclays serves Israel’s genocide’ were held by protesters, who were also heard chanting, “Barclays bank you can’t hide, we charge you with genocide”.
Barclays has faced heavy criticism for its alleged relationships with defence firms that produce equipment used by the Israeli Defence Force.
Lewis Backon, 29, campaigns officer for PSC said: “Barclays sponsors big sporting events to cover its accountability in funding the war''.
“I think Barclays has had a lot of reputational damage because it's complicit in Israel's genocide in Palestine.
An artist participating in the protest created an installation to commemorate Hind Rajab, a five year old who was killed on January 24 last year after her family were ordered to evacuate their home in Gaza by the Israel Defence Force (IDF).
