  Church of the Holy Sepulchre

  ✝️ Church of the Holy Sepulchre For Christian pilgrims, this is Jerusalem’s holiest site, believed to mark the place where Jesus was crucified, buried, and resurrected. The church was first commissioned in the 4th century by Saint Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine, who identified this spot as the biblical Calvary (Golgotha). Although the original structure was destroyed, the magnificent church standing today dates back to the 11th century. Inside, visitors find the final five Stations of the Cross along the Via Dolorosa, as well as chapels and relics revered by various Christian denominations. Often bustling with pilgrims from around the globe, the church remains a profound spiritual center and a masterpiece of sacred architecture.
