This area is called Gethsemane, which means "oil press" in Hebrew. And it's not for nothing. The garden is famous for its olive trees. Italian researchers conducted a test and found out that eight of them are over a thousand years old. And they come from a single "ancestor" who was probably a mute witness to the biblical events. Surprisingly, the trees are still bearing fruit.
A sacred place
It's a special feeling to stand in the Garden of Gethsemane. This is where Jesus prayed the night before the trial. This is a place of spiritual power for all Christians, and it is mentioned more than once in the Holy Scriptures.
The Church of All Nations is built on the very spot where the Savior read his last prayers. Another name of the church is the Temple of Agony, which refers us to the night of the terrible torments of Christ.

The Church of All Nations or the Basilica of Agony is a Catholic Franciscan church, built in 1924 by the Italian architect Antonio Barluzzi.
In front of the altar of the Church of All Nations there is a stone on which, according to legend, Jesus Christ made his last prayer on the night of his arrest before "drinking the cup of suffering."
The construction of the church was funded by Catholic communities from many European countries, as well as from Canada, after which it got its name.The open altar, located in the garden of the church, is used by Christians of various denominations, including Catholics, Orthodox, Armenian Gregorians, Protestants (Lutherans, Evangelicals, Anglicans).The temple is always in semi-darkness, in memory of the fact that the events to which it is dedicated took place at night.
A huge domed vault opens inside the Church of All Nations. There is a large crucifix behind the altar.The mosaic above the altar depicts the "Gethsemane prayer", flanked by scenes of Judas kissing, "The Betrayal of the Savior" and "The Taking of Christ into custody".
I will add from myself that the Church is located in the Garden of Gethsemane...Those who are interested in history, from the biblical side, can learn a lot for themselves. And the mosaics themselves are worth looking at in reality!
