Jubail Church, Archaeological ruins of a church in Jubail, Saudi Arabia
The remnants of the church include foundations, portions of walls, and two crosses carved near the inner doorway leading from nave to sanctuary.
The church structure was discovered in 1986 when a dune buggy impacted the ruins, leading to archaeological excavations by Saudi authorities in 1987.
The structure belonged to the Church of the East, representing a branch of Eastern Christianity that extended across Western Asia during late antiquity.
The archaeological site currently maintains restricted access, requiring special permissions from local authorities for research and documentation purposes.
Excavated artifacts and architectural elements at the location provide evidence of Christian communities in pre-Islamic Arabia during the fourth century.
