Church of the Holy Sepulchre

The site is venerated as Calvary (Golgotha),  where Jesus of Nazareth was crucified,  and also contains the place where Jesus is said to have been buried. Within the church are the last four  Stations of the Cross along the Via Dolorosa, representing the final episodes of Jesus’ Passion. The church has been an important Christian pilgrimage destination since at least the fourth century as the purported site of the resurrection of Jesus.
Today it also serves as the headquarters of the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem, while control of the building is shared between several Christian churches and secular entities in complicated arrangements essentially unchanged for centuries.
