  • Cover photo description:
  • The main access to the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem is this Liliputian and simple door in the main façade known as `Door of Humility`. It dates back to the Ottoman period and its small size meant to prevent carts being driven in by looters, and to force even the most important visitor to dismount from his horse as they entered the holy place. The doorway was reduced from an earlier Crusader doorway, the pointed arch of which can still be seen above the current door.
