Co-Cathedral of the Most Holy Name of Jesus

The Co-Cathedral of the Most Holy Name of Jesus features Gothic Revival architecture with pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and stained glass windows throughout its interior.

The cathedral's construction began in 1847 after Ottoman authorities granted permission, with builders discovering ancient Jerusalem wall remnants during the foundation work.

The cathedral functions as the primary church for the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem, hosting regular masses and religious ceremonies for the Catholic community.

The cathedral measures 28 meters in length and 24 meters in width, containing five altars in the nave and aisles, plus two additional altars in the transept.

Four large stained glass windows decorate the cathedral ends, with the entrance featuring a rose window depicting the Four Evangelists in rich detail.
