Description
At the Nazareth Village – Israel - A first-century farm and village presenting the life, times and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth for all the world.
Two thousand years after the birth of Jesus, Nazareth Village opened its doors to visitors. Nazareth Village is located on a site that was remarkably untouched and unchanged since Jesus time. In fact, Nazareth Village preserves the last remaining fields worked by Jesus' friends, family and fellow villagers.
The surrounding terraces and farm features did exist in Jesus' time. Today, Nazareth Village features a carefully researched re-creation of Jesus hometown. The original farm has been restored with olive trees, terraces, ancient wine press, irrigation system and stone quarry. Exact replicas of first century houses, synagogue, mikveh and olive presses have been carefully built using the same methods that would have been used by Joseph the carpenter. The scenes are brought to life as "Villagers" populate the farm and houses, living and working with the same type of clothing, pottery, tools and methods that Mary and Jesus would have used.
