The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem is a significant destination for any visitor interested in religious history. This fourth-century church, located in the Christian Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem, is considered one of the world’s holiest shrines to Christians. The church is built on the traditional site of Jesus’ Crucifixion and burial. According to the Bible, his tomb was close to the place of the Crucifixion, and so the church was planned to enclose the site of both the cross and the tomb. The church itself is a blend of architectural styles, reflecting its long history of destruction and reconstruction. The present church dates mainly from 1810.
