The Muristan is situated in the heart of the Old City of Jerusalem
and was a prime property in medieval times with numerous churches,
a hospice, and a large hospital complex. This monograph contains
fifteen chapters written by leading scholars from around the world
dealing with the archaeological and historical aspects of the
Muristan from the Iron Age through to Ottoman times. A number of
chapters also address its immediate urban surroundings, notably the
complex of structures associated with the Church of the Holy
Sepulchre on the north and the Church of St John the Baptist to the
south-west. Key chapters in this monograph are dedicated to the
history of the Church of the Redeemer and on its underlying
archaeological remains. Many of the chapters are based on research
that was originally presented at an international workshop held in
Jerusalem in 2014.
