EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Augusta Victoria Hospital, nestled on the eastern slopes of the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem. Built in 1907, the hospital was initially established as a pilgrim centre for the German Protestant community in Palestine. The imposing tower of the hospital stands proudly against the backdrop of the Old City of Jerusalem, its whitewashed walls reflecting the rich history and cultural significance of the region. During the tumultuous period of World War II, the British authorities converted the building into a hospital to care for the wounded and sick. The hospital's humanitarian mission continued long after the war, and it is now a vital healthcare facility for the Arab residents of East Jerusalem. The Mount of Olives, a site of great religious and historical importance, has been a place of pilgrimage for thousands of years. The hospital's location on this sacred land adds an extra layer of significance to its role as a place of healing and refuge. The Augusta Victoria Hospital remains a testament to the enduring spirit of compassion and care that has connected people to this land for generations. This photograph, taken circa 1910, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the hospital's early history and the unique role it played in the lives of the German Protestant community and later, the Arab residents of East Jerusalem. Today, it continues to provide essential healthcare services to those in need, making it a symbol of hope and resilience in the face of adversity.
