Domus Galilaeae or House of Galilee (Hebrew: בית הגליל), located on the peak of Mount of Beatitudes, above and north of Capernaum and the Sea of Galilee, is a Christian meeting place used for seminars and conventions, run by the Neocatechumenal Way. On his pilgrimage to Israel in 2000, Pope John Paul II visited Domus Galilaeae and said he hoped it would become a place for interreligious dialogue.
Domus Galilaeae employs about 150 people full-time, including labourers, technicians, and volunteers. There are 37 Arab Christian workers, 32 Arab Muslims, 21 Jewish technicians, 20 Druzes, and 10 Maronites.
Very uniqe place. Very interesting. A very beautiful building. You can visit only with a guide from the place. And theres a tour every 30 minuts. The tour is in different languages so you probably find the correct one. The view is wonderful! I recommend to visit the place if you are close.
