Mamilla Cemetery, Islamic cemetery in West Jerusalem, Israel
The Mamilla Cemetery extends near the walls of Jerusalem's Old City, containing numerous decorated tombs and traditional Islamic burial markers from different periods.
The cemetery holds remains dating back to the Crusades, including warriors from Saladin's armies and prominent Muslim scholars throughout centuries of continuous use until 1927.
Multiple Sufi shrines and Mamluk-era tombs within the cemetery grounds represent different periods of Islamic architectural and burial traditions in Jerusalem.
The cemetery grounds can be accessed from the western section of Jerusalem's Old City, though parts of the site have construction and development restrictions.
The cemetery contains remains of both Islamic figures and thousands of Christians from the pre-Islamic period, showing the layered history of Jerusalem's burial practices.
