Tel: +972 2628 6871
 

This unique round church of the Ethiopian Christians sits in an enclosed compound, surrounded by the dwellings of the monks and nuns. Hours are irregular, but if the door is open, feel free to walk in. Dress modestly, and remove your shoes before entering the church, which is carpeted. You may encounter monks or nuns standing in prayer or performing prostrations. Paintings on the walls and columns depict the Holy Family and Ethiopian saints. A donation will be appreciated, and you can also light a candle.
