Visiting St. George's Church in AlSalt was an awe-inspiring experience. Built in 1682, it stands as one of the oldest shrines in the area. The history behind it is equally fascinating; Saint George is said to have appeared to a shepherd in a cave, instructing him and the villagers to build a church on that very spot. This church serves as a remarkable testament to the unity between Muslims and Christians, as it honors Saint George who is also syncretized with Al Khader in the region. Members of both faith communities come here to offer prayers, creating a sense of spiritual togetherness.

The church underwent renovation in 2004, thanks to the local community's efforts, but its historical essence has been beautifully preserved. The remains of the original cave can still be seen inside the chapel, as a large opening in the mountain, serving as a poignant reminder of its origins.

This church is not just a place of worship; it's a living symbol of religious harmony and community spirit. A must-visit for anyone interested in history, spirituality, or the beauty of interfaith relations.

Free Admission.
Opening Hours: 9:00am – 6:00pm

St. George church or al-khader church is a small yet beautiful church with unique believes and history. Its special because both Muslims and Christians pray here with love and care. Its is said to have been built in 1682. There is a partial cave inside the church. Visit here is a blissful feeling. This is totaly from my experience. Visit it you will love its simplicity.

An Orthodox church located in the old town of Salt in Jordan. It was built on an ancient cave in the Ottoman period, specifically in 1682 AD, and was restored in 2004. It was named after Al-Khidr, and many Christians in the area believe in the existence of several miracles that occurred in this period and are still happening. The church, today one of the landmarks of the Al-Salt heritage path
