The Church of Saint Mary of the Germans

Old City of Jerusalem[1] on the northeast slope of Mount Zion
.

It was in 1126, after the

Teutonic Knights in April 1229, but then it went to the Order of St. John by order of Pope Gregory IX. As a result of the capture of Jerusalem in 1244, the hospice and church were left in ruins.[citation needed

The ruins were discovered in 1872 by T. Drake. They are now partially open as part of a public archaeological park.[citation needed]
