Hidden Gems of Europe - DISCOVERING THE CONTINENT'S BEST-KEPT SECRETSKamil Uğraş TÜRKOĞLU
Europe, continent rich in history, culture, and natural beauty, is often synonymous with famous cities like Paris, Rome, and London. These iconic destinations attract millions of tourists every year, captivating them with their renowned landmarks, vibrant culture, and bustling urban life. However, beyond these well-trodden paths lie countless hidden gems waiting to be discovered. These lesser-known destinations offer unique experiences, authentic encounters, and breathtaking landscapes that often surpass the allure of their famous counterparts.
In "Hidden Gems of Europe," we embark on a journey to uncover these secret spots, exploring the heart and soul of Europe through its quaint villages, charming towns, and secluded natural wonders. This book aims to inspire travelers to look beyond the obvious and venture into the lesser-explored corners of the continent, where true adventure and discovery await.
2. Naturally, Jerusalem is abundant with churches. The following presentation
is not an extensive survey of them and does not pretend to include them all.
One of the main parameters to include a church in this presentation is its
visual side. There is no real educational refer to which Christian division the
churches belong, but a mention only. This is mainly a visual journey, and its
purpose – seeing for oneself.
3. We will start our tour with the churches closing on the sky line of Jerusalem.
And first – the Augusta Victoria church on Mount Olives, which bell tower is
seen from every corner in Jerusalem. This church, established at 1910, was
built by the German Kaiser Friedrich the 2nd after his visit in Jerusalem at
1898, and is called after his wife, who had accompanied him on that visit. In
addition to the church itself, the place has a hostel for German protestant
pilgrims and a rest-home for German residents. For years now, these buildings
function as hospitals for the Arab population of Jerusalem and its environs.
6. We go to mount Zion, and on its top - the Dormition church – “the sleep of saint
Mary”. The chapel is dedicated to its decorations. Directly in front of the This

entrance, above the apsis – a big drowing of Mary and Jesus.
church, finished at 1906, is also an initiative of Kaiser Wilhelm the 2nd, who built
it on a ground given to him as a present from the Turkish sultan Hamid, while
visiting Jerusalem at 1898. It is built on the ruins of a crusaders church
preceded by a Byzantine one.
It is worth to tell, that the unusual cone roof of the church, made of tin over
wood construction, had not “content” along the years. In WWI Jerusalem
was attacked by Italian airplanes, and the only damage caused was a direct
hit to the Dormition’s roof. It took a long time to repair it, and shortly after,
late 1947, the War of Independence broke and the tin roof was pierced like a
sieve of massive shooting of the Jordanian legionnaires. The reconstruction of
the cone took till 1959, and held on until the first day of the Six Days War
(6/6/67), when it was hit and caught fire. After the war it was repaired again
and is still standing to date.
8. We go down to the basement, it too a beauty. Here we can find the sculpture
of sleeping Mary, and above it a ceiling with paintings of famous women of the
biblical history such as Eve, Esther, Ruth, Judith, and Miriam sister of Moses
– all surrounding Jesus.
9. On the eastern side of mount Zion facing Kidron valley and Kfar Ha’shiloach,
and a bit hidden though its might and beauty, is the Church of Saint Peter in
Gallicantu – built where traditionally stood the house of Kaipha – the head of
the Judean Sanhedrin, who sentenced Jesus to death!!! Here also denied Peter
the accusation of extraditing Jesus. The name Gallicantu – “call of the rooster”
in Latin, symbolizes the denial of Peter three times – one after the other. The
church is built of several stories, which the lower ones show ancient building
remains as well as the room which Jesus was imprisoned after his extradition.
The church is run by catholic monks of the French order – the Asamsonites.
10. The upper chapel, the main one – its ceiling decoration

12. The church of the Redeemer is a protestant Lutheran church located in the
Christian quarter of Jerusalem, near the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. Its chapel
is simple and graceless but it stands out with its bell tower, rising above the old
city roofs, as well as its unique cloister built aside the chapel. This church is also
related to former mentioned Kaiser Friedrich the 2nd, as one of the reasons for his
visit in the country at 1898 was to inaugurate this church that was built with
German empire money. The church is built on the ruins of saint Mary the
crusader from the 12th century, as well as on some Byzantine remains.
13. This is the fabulous cloister of the church of the Redeemer – a remnant from
the Byzantine period. The cloister is a square court surrounded on four sides
with arcades, and a garden in its center.
This is the
arcade
14. Not far from there, at the beginning of the “Via Dolorosa”, adjacent to the
Lion’s gate, is a huge church called Santa Anna church. Anna was the wife
of Jehoyachin, mother of Mary, and here, according to the eastern church
tradition, Mary was born. The church belongs to a French order – the
catholic “white brothers”. It was built in the crusaders period (11th century)
on a Byzantine church ruins.
15. A sculpture of Anna and her daughter Mary in the residence cave of Anna,
and it decorations.
16. We go out east through the Lion’s gate and down the Mount of Olives we find
a few especially impressive impression front – the Churchchurch,

called the Church of All Nations – a name given to it as a result of the massive

fund rising in many different countries for its construction (in the years
1919-1924). It is built on ruins of a crusaders church and there are also
mosaics from an ancient Byzantine church. It is constructed on a natural
rock surface that according to the tradition used Jesus for his sleep before
extradited to the Sanhedrin. The place itself is called Gethsemane (or Gat
Shemanim in Hebrew, meaning oil press)
17. Inside the church – the rock Jesus spent his last hours on before being extradited
Jesus resting on the rock after The Last Supper
18. Next to the Church of All Nations is the Mary’s tomb church. This is a vast
cave, and acording to the chatolic tradition it was here the Mary was laid
before her ascension. As recalled – the Dormition church also describes the
place of Mary’s sleep, and on this matter the versions differ.
19. A bit more up the mountain is the Russian Church of Mary Magdalene. It was
built in 1888 according to the Russian tradition characterized with gold plated
“onion” towers, shining to the distance. Unlike most of the other churches, it
does not indicate on a holy place. Its name infers Mary the Magdalene
(Miriam of Migdal - a resident of the town of Migdal on the Galilee sea shore)
who was one of Jesus disciples, and according to the tradition also attended his
burial and resurrection.
21. Another short climb and we areandthe entrance hall beneath it with a latticed

about Jesus saying: “When He approached Jerusalem, He saw the city and
wept over it… they will not leave in you one stone upon another…“ (Luke 19,
41- 44). The churches dome resembles a tear, and it is also built on a Byzantine
church ruins, which mosaic’s floor has partially preserved.
22. We move to the area of the modern western Jerusalem, and here we find a
few more beautiful churches. Beneath Israel Museum in the valley of the
cross is the Monastery of the Cross. Here – according to the tradition – grew
the olive tree which was used to make the cross on which Jesus was crucified
(hence the name). And if that is not enough – the tradition clams the tree was
planted by Lot as a part of his atonement. The place was first built in the 6th
century A.C. and ruined, and the present building was established in the 11th
century by Georgian monks. In the 18th century it was purchased by the
Greek orthodox church which own many assets in Jerusalem and its
surroundings.
25. We go to the Russian Compound to visit the Holy Trinity Cathedral. The
whole compound was purchased by the Russians in the second half of the 19th
century, when the Russian pilgrimage movement began to rise. First they
built hostels to accommodate the pilgrims, and in 1872 the church was
inaugurated. It was built (by the tsar’s initiative) to resemble the St Vasily
church in the red square in Moscow, with eight towers rising above it.
26. There is another area in
Jerusalem abundant with
churches – Ein Kerem. Lacking of
space, we will show only one of the
churches - the Church of the
Visitation. Here – according to the
tradition - was the summer house
of Zechariah and Elizabeth –
parents of John the Baptist, who
were relatives of Mary mother of
Jesus, and she visited here on her
way to Jerusalem, in her last days
of pregnancy.
The church was established in
1955 on the ruins of a crusaders
church from around the 12th
century, and it is a Franciscan
catholic church
27. The inside of the chapel, and the paintings of the tow relatives meeting.
And here before us, a painting showing a controversial story, telling about Herod receiving
a message saying the Messiah was just born to the Judea tribe. He issues an order to
execute all male infants recently born to the tribe, but when his soldiers come to Zechariah
and Elizabeth’s house, a miracle happens and a large rock is oppend, allowing her to hide
in it and save her son.
28. Church of the Holy Sepulchre
We finish with the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. This is the holiest site to
Christianity, even holier then St Peter’s basilica in the Vatican. This enormous
church is built on Jesus' crucifixion site – Golgotha, and inside is the cave
were Jesus was buried in, resurrected and ascended. The place was first
identified by Helena – mother of Constantine, the emperor who declared
Christianity as the official country’s religion in 324 A.C. In 326 A.C. Helena
arrived to Jerusalem to locate the place. In the site there was a Roman/pagan
shrine, apparently to blur the memory of Jesus, but post factum it seems to
have brought certainty to the identification of the site. The shrine was
destroyed and instead Constantine and Helena established the first Church of
the Holy Sepulcher, inaugurated in 333 A.C. The church was destroyed and
renovated several times due to the different conquests, and the structure we
know today was built in 1099 with the crusaders conquest and standing still
though repeatedly renovated.
Unlike most churches in the Christian world, that belong each to its certain
order, this church is joint managed by 7 different orders, the three dominant
ones being: the Greek orthodox, the Armenians and the Franciscans. On a
lower rank are the Copts, the Syrians, the Ya’acobits and the Ethiopians
(located on the church’s roof). (And the keys for the church, believe it or not,
are in the hands of a Muslim family!!!)
29. The joint management causes bitter disputes between the orders – when every
change, renovation or small repair demands unanimous agreement and some
times they quarrel for years on different executions, let alone fundamental
disagreements about performing different rituals on different dates.
In any case – these days it possible to see on Fridays, for instance, how all the
orders perform their prayers, each in its hall, and by the end, come down one
after the other, accurate to the minute, to finish the prayer in front of Jesus burial
cave – the holiest spot!!!
30. A painting of the Golgotha – the Roman’s execution site. Jesus is being crucified
along with two “ordinary” criminals. On this site exist today the Church of the
Holy Sepulcher
31. Inside, in front of the entrance, placed the Stone of the Anointing – used to purify
Jesus’ body and anoint it after he was taken down from the cross and brought to
burial.
32. On the wall – a large mosaic picture, describing in three scenes how Jesus was
taken down from the cross and brought to proper burial in the familial burial
cave of Joseph of Arimathea.
33. Hundreds of people stand in line “rotunda”, and in its center the “aedicule” – of

35. As mentioned before – the church has several praying halls, to all the different
orders, and here are some examples

Dolorosa
38. Before us – a few examples of the “changing of guard” of the different
orders in front of the sepulcher cave. The Armenians

39. Here we finish, and as always, almost, over but not done with, and yet, we
managed to bring to you a presentation of the variety of the impressive
churches of Jerusalem, the city holy to Christianity, as well as to the Judaism
and Islam.
