Mount Zion, Jerusalem | Israel Top Attractions

Mount Zion

Mount Zion

Mount Zion has been mentioned in the Hebrew Bible several times and is even used to refer to the entire Land of Israel, making it a significant part of the history of Jerusalem.

Located outside the walls of the Old City, Mount Zion has witnessed several events in the early Christian church including the last supper of Jesus and the manifestation of the Holy Spirit to his disciples at the Cenacle, the “falling asleep” of the Virgin Mary at the Church of the Dormition and the appearance of Jesus to the high priest Caiaphas at the Church of St.Peter in Gallicantu. 

The exact location of Mount Zion has been as colorful as its beginnings. In the Old Testament, it was described as the eastern fortress captured by King David now known as the City of David. The name moved, however, with the erection of the First Temple on the eastern hill. But today, Mount Zion is located on the western hill where the Jerusalemites think is the most worthy to be called the name.
