Monastery of St Saviour, Jerusalem, Franciscan monastery near New Gate, East Jerusalem, Israel.

The Monastery of St Saviour is a Franciscan friary in East Jerusalem, close to the New Gate, built in a traditional basilica style with a notable clock tower. The complex includes a print shop, an organ workshop, and administrative offices that serve the wider Franciscan community in the region.

The land was handed over to Franciscan monks in 1560, following permission granted by Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. From that point on, this site became the main Franciscan base within the walled city of Jerusalem.

The monastery's name comes from Christ the Saviour, and its church was consecrated on 29 November 1885. A workshop for building organs was set up here in 1754 by two Spanish organ builders; the instrument they made for the Holy Sepulchre was reduced and installed here after the Orthodox community objected. The current organ, with 46 stops on three manuals and pedal, was built in 2008 by the Austrian firm Rieger Orgelbau inside the historic case.

The monastery stands at 1 Saint Francis Street, just east of the New Gate in the Old City. The church, print shop, organ workshop and school are working parts of the friary, so entry to the church is separate from the cloistered areas. The church is built on a north-south axis, so the altar faces south rather than east.

The church inside the complex follows a north-south axis rather than the east-west orientation common in most sacred buildings. This was shaped by the plot of land available to the monks when the church was built.
