SITE OVERVIEW

The Cenacle: Room of the Last Supper

Situated on the storied Mount Zion in Jerusalem, the Cenacle or the Room of the Last Supper is a profoundly significant site rooted in Christian and Jewish heritage. It is traditionally believed to be the place where Jesus Christ shared his Last Supper with his disciples, marking a pivotal moment in Christian theology. The room is architecturally intriguing, showcasing Gothic stylistic elements that were likely added during the Crusader period. Historically, the Cenacle dates back to the first century CE, and has since witnessed a myriad of religious and cultural transformations, encapsulating layers of history within its sacred walls.

Today, the Cenacle serves as a focal point for countless pilgrims and seekers of religious history. Visitors from around the world come to experience the palpable sense of history and spirituality that envelops the room. The site is often used for commemorative ceremonies around Holy Week and Easter, drawing in devotees who wish to walk in the footsteps of their faith. While it is a Christian site, its proximity to the Tomb of David lends it significance in Jewish tradition as well, making it a unique convergence point of belief systems. Preservation efforts over the years have ensured that this invaluable piece of spiritual heritage remains accessible and captivating for future generations.
