Built over the cave where Jesus is supposed to have been born, the Church of the Nativity probably is the oldest operating church in the world, and one of the main destinations for religious tourists.
Over time, the Church of the Nativity expanded by the Crusaders and others; for instance, the Roman Catholic Church of St. Catherine was added in the 19th century. It is here that Midnight Mass is celebrated on Christmas Eve. Three different authorities are in charge in the Church of the Nativity: the Greek Orthodox, Roman Catholic and Armenian Apostolic. What makes the Church of the Nativity unique is that it was built right over the cave in which Jesus was born according to legend. Obviously, this is the most sacred spot in the church. A 14-pointed silver star in an Armenian setting marks the spot where Mary gave birth to Jesus.
