FAQ/INFO

Monastery of St Catherine The smallest dioceses in the world is at the same time the oldest Christian monastery still in existence in the world and houses also the richest collection of icons and precious manuscripts .We can find the first news regarding the monastery of St Catherine in the chronicles of the patriarch of Alexandria Entychios, who lived during the 9 century said chronicles tell us how Helen the mother of emperor Constantine remained by the sacredness of these places that in the year 330 she ordered the construction of the small chapel on site where the burning bush had been located /The chapel was dedicated to the blessed virgin Mary numerous ecclesiastic donations on the other hand it led to a series of raids and murders carried out by the nomadic tribes of the desert.These bloody raids against the monks and hermits went on for the entire 6th century until emperor Justin Ian in 530 ordered the construction of much larger basilica ,one which would be the church of the transfigurations . it was then that the monastery took on the appearance of a massive fortification which characterizes it even today .In order to protect the monks from possible incursions in fact Justin Ian had a genuine fort constructed around the church. Mount Sinai Rising up out of the desert and jutting above the other peaks surrounding the monastery is the towering 2285 m ,Mt Sinai which is known locally Moses mountain , and is not to be confused with the far lower mountain directly up the valley behind the monastery .
