This is the Parish church for the Christian Quarter of Jerusalem's Old City. Located just inside the New Gate, it is a centre of community activity. The Franciscan Order opened one of the first printing presses in Jerusalem in this monastery complex, and operated an organ workshop. If you visit at Christmas time, you will find a large and beautiful creche - one of the hallmarks of the Franciscans.
