Description
Abbey of the Dormition is an abbey and the name of a Benedictine community in Jerusalem on Mount Zion just outside the walls of the Old City near the Zion Gate. The hill of Mount Zion is the highest point in ancient Jerusalem. The bell tower and lead-covered cupola of Dormition tower noticeably over Mount Zion and mark the skyline of the Old City of Jerusalem from various directions. Dormition Basilica is relatively young with its barely hundred-year history. But it stands on old stone and oral testimonies of Christian belief. For many pilgrims and local Christians, the German Marian shrine is one of the most important holy places in the whole land.
