Jerusalem: Pool of Bethesda (1899 photo)



Jerusalem: Pool of Bethesda (Bell Archive NcU)


The Pool of Bethesda, located beside the church of St Anne, is a rock-cut pool with Roman and Byzantine remains. This 1899 photo by Gertrude Bell shows details of these ancient architectural levels, with the archways of later buildings overlying earlier ones.

The Gertrude Bell photo archive is at Newcastle University in England.
