Welcome to Jerusalem
Exhibition Catalog
Jerusalem is a place of desire and longing for Jews, Christians, and Muslims.
Jerusalem is a sacred place, where the three great monotheistic religions are deeply rooted. Jerusalem is, however, also more disputed and contested than almost any other place in the world, since the visible sanctums of the three religions compete on the same territory for the veneration of their faithful.
This book accompanies the exhibition. In it twenty authors provide insights into the city, writing about historical and topical aspects, scientifically or personally, from Israeli or Arab viewpoints.
