👉 Great Omari Mosque of Lod in the context of Church of Saint George (Lod)

The Church of Saint George (Hebrew: כנסיית גאורגיוס הקדוש קוטל הדרקון, lit.'Church of Saint George the dragonslayer'; Arabic: كنيسة القديس جيورجوس or كنيسة مار جريس) is a Greek Orthodox church, located in the city of Lod, Israel. The church contains a sarcophagus venerated as the tomb of the fourth-century Christian martyr Saint George.

The 19th-century church is located adjacent to the 15th-century Great Mosque of Lod. The original site containing both the church and the mosque was a former medieval church that was destroyed in the 12th century; and rebuilt during the Crusader period.
