The church was built between 1936 and 1938 by the architect Antonio Berlozzi, it is designed in an octagonal shape to symbolize the 8 verses from the “Sermon on the Mount” of Jesus that begin with the word “blessed” and the windows in its eight walls are decorated with the verses of the sermon. On the floor of the church around the altar, there are seven tablets inscribed with the virtues according to the “Sermon on the Mount”: hope, humility, faith, courage, justice, generosity and wisdom. down the mountain are the remains of a Byzantine church and monastery.

Fast Refund - A different review. We booked with Gil for a day tour of Galilee then discovered a friend of ours who lives there would be in town. So, we had to cancel. All communication with Gil was quick and clear and the refund was handled promptly...no hassle at all. When the time comes again, we will definitely look to Gil for our tours.
