Ecce Homo (church)

The Ecce Homo Basilica in the Old City of Jerusalem ( and the associated monastery of Notre Dame de Sion) go back to the founding of the French priest Alphonse Ratisbonne. He was a born in 1814 in Strasbourg Jew who converted to Catholicism, the priesthood was given and founded the Order of the Sisters of Sion. In 1857 he bought the bomb site at Hadrian's Arch and commissioned the architect Honoré Daumet and Christophe Edouard Mauss ( 1829-1914 ) with the construction of the monastery and the church. Both were completed in 1864 and consecrated.
