Salesian Church of Jesus the Adolescent

Set on a quiet lane in Nazareth’s bustling souk district is a small cavernous church where followers of the Christian faith believe Jesus once studied.

Built for British sailors in the mid 1800s, this austere church was the second Anglican place of worship established in the Holy Land.

Artwork that depicts the life of the Holy Family decorates this church, which according to popular belief was erected over Joseph’s carpentry workshop.

Towering over the skyline of Nazareth’s Old City, this ancient church is believed by many to stand on the site of the childhood home of the Virgin Mary.

On a cobblestone square in modern-day Nazareth, a stone fountain stands on the site of a well that holds great significance in the Bible.

Watch as pilgrims gather at this 18th-century church, which is noteworthy for its sacred spring and a collection of colorful frescoes.
