This church is one of the complex comprising the Petra Church, the Blue Church and the Ridge Church.
The Blue Church was named for its four blue Egyptian granite columns. Inside the chapel lies a base of a bishop’s throne in the apse, a marble pulpit and marble chancel posts and screens.
This complex of three churches was built over earlier Nabatean buildings and tombs, which remained in use throughout the Roman period before Christianity became dominant in Petra in the fifth century AD, at which time some buildings and tombs were converted to churches. The finely carved capitals of the columns in the Blue Church, for example, are Nabatean, suggesting that these may have been recovered from an earlier temple.

το Blue Chapel πήρε το όνομά του από τις τέσσερις μπλε αιγυπτιακές γρανιτοειδείς στήλες .
Το παρεκκλήσι είχε επίσης μπλε δάπεδο από ψαμμίτη και μπλε μαρμάρινα έπιπλα συμπεριλαμβανομένου ενός μπλε μαρμάρινου άμβωνα .
Το κτίριο αυτό πιστεύεται ότι μετατράπηκε σε κατοικία και παρεκκλήσι για τον επίσκοπο της Πέτρας

The striking feature of this ancient church are the 4 blue columns made of granite standing in the center of the structure. Their color stands in stark contrast to the beige & brown of everything else in Petra. There are a few things made of marble as well. The panoramic views of the Royal tombs and Great temple from here are very good.

Tra la Chiesa di Petra e la Ridge Church c'è la Cappella Blu, così chiamata in onore delle sue quattro colonne di granito egiziano blu, sormontate da capitelli nabatei, crollate in un terremoto dell'VIII secolo ma poi rierette. La cappella aveva anche pavimenti in arenaria blu e arredi in marmo blu, tra cui un pulpito di marmo blu.

About Petra
Historical place in JordanPetra, originally known to its inhabitants as Raqmu or Raqēmō, is a historic and archaeological city in southern Jordan. Famous for its rock-cut architecture and water conduit system, Petra is also called the "Rose City" because of the colour of the sandstone from which it is carved; it was famously called "a rose-red city half as old as time" in a poem of 1845 by John Burgon. source
