Jerusalem: Unknown Church (can anyone help?)

Images of Jerusalem Gallery

«Back to Last Page | Churches in and around Jerusalem Gallery »

Jerusalem (Hebrew: Yerushalayim, Arabic: al-Quds) is a key religious city for Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Because of this, it naturally has a great many religious structures - including a lot of churches. Nearly every denomination of Christianity has some sort of presence in Jerusalem and those that have been around the longest have the most visible presence: large, ornate churches of great antiquity, some going back thousands of years.

I do not know what church this is. I suspect that it is one of the Armenian churches, perhaps the Cathedral of St. James. Unfortunately, I cannot find any other images to confirm that one way or another. If anyone can help, please let me know.

Update: Eva informs me that "the church in the forground is the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer, the one in the background: The Church of St. John the Baptist, Greek Orthodox. Thanks, Eva!
