The Garden Tomb is a heritage site in East Jerusalem, on Conrad Schick Street in the Jerusalem District of Israel. It is also known as Gordon's Calvary. The site is an alternative location that some Protestant Christians believe to be where Jesus was crucified and buried.
What to expect
Visitors come here to see a garden setting with a rock-cut tomb and to consider the different traditions surrounding the events of the crucifixion and burial. Because the site is presented as one possible location rather than a settled historical fact, it makes a reflective visit for those interested in how Christians have understood these places over time.
