Cирийцы
Экскурсия по следам cирийской общины и посещение монастыря Святого Марка.

Cирийская община гордится тем, что живёт в Иерусалиме со времён Иисуса Христа. Монастырь Святого Марка в Старом городе служит центром для общины, которая говорит на арамейском языке.

Здесь находится небольшая, но впечатляющая церковь.По местной легенде, именно в подвале этого монастыря состоялась Тайная вечеря. Мы отправимся в путешествие по следам этой небольшой древней общины, чтобы познакомиться с её образом жизни, обычаями и историей.

The Syriac community takes pride in having been established in Jerusalem since the time of Jesus. St. Mark’s Monastery in the Old City serves as the center of this Aramaic-speaking community, with a small yet impressive church, and a long-standing tradition that the Last Supper of Jesus took place in the cellar of the site.

We will set out on a tour following this small and ancient community, learning about its way of life, customs, and history, and we will meet a representative of the community.

The tour includes entry to the church. Please arrive in modest attire (no sleeveless shirts or shorts).

Meeting Point: Angelina Drahi Entrance Pavilion, western entrance to the Tower of David, near Mamilla Mall
End Point: Jaffa Gate
