CHURCH OF HOLY SEPULCHRE
The Church of the Holy Sepulchre is a church in the Christian Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem, a few steps away from the Muristan. The church contains, according to traditions, the two holiest sites in Christianity: the site where Jesus of Nazareth was crucified (a place known as "Calvary" or "Golgotha"), and Jesus's empty tomb, where he is said to have been buried and resurrected. The tomb is enclosed by a 18th-century shrine, called the Aedicule (Edicule).
COPTIC ORTHODOX PATRIARCHATE
The Coptic Orthodox Patriarchate is a complex of several monasteries and convents, located in the Christian Quarter of the Old City. The heart of the compound is the church of Saint Anthony, named after the Egypt-born saint who ridded himself of all of his assets to live in isolation in the desert.
