Church Of The Holy Sepulchre, Jerusalem Overview
Church Of The Holy Sepulchre, also known as the Church of the Resurrection, is one of the holiest sites for Christians, located in the Christian quarter of the Old City in Jerusalem. It is revered as the site where Jesus was crucified and the tomb where He was buried and resurrected.
The Calvary is the most decorated part of the church and consists of 2 chapels with their altars, one Greek Orthodox and one Catholic. The tomb is now enclosed by a shrine called Aedicula, which is a small chapel with two rooms housing Angel’s stone. The Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Armenian Apostolic hold daily Mass here. Another essential structure inside the church entrance is the Stone of Anointing, which displays mosaics depicting the anointing of Jesus’ body. The courtyard or Parvis of the church has numerous chapels on the eastern and western sides, including the Chapel of St.John and the Chapel of St.James the Just, respectively.
