dc.descriptionContext view, church at base of the Mount of Olives; A Russian Orthodox church located on the Mount of Olives, near the Garden of Gethsemane in East Jerusalem. The church was built in 1886 by Tsar Alexander III to honor his mother, Empress Maria Alexandrovna of Russia. It was constructed to David Grimm's design in the traditional tented roof style popular in 16th and 17th century Russia, and includes seven distinctive, gilded onion domes. The convent is located directly across the Kidron Valley from the Temple Mount. Two martyred saints, the Grand Duchess Elizabeth Feodorovna of Russia and her fellow nun (Sister Barbara) Varvara Yakovleva (died 1918), are buried in the church.
