In 1106, European Crusaders built a chapel in the ruins of the "Church of the Disciples," built by St. Helena (mother of Constantine) in the early 300s AD over a cave on the Mount of Olives thought to be the location of the Ascension of Christ. The Crusaders associated the site with the teaching of the Our Father prayer. The entire site was excavated and a new church and compound built that preserves part of the original churches, as well as the chapel area, a grotto, where the Crusaders thought that Jesus taught the Our Father prayer. | In 1106, European Crusaders built a chapel in the ruins of the "Church of the Disciples," built by St. Helena (mother of Constantine) in the early 300s AD over a cave on the Mount of Olives thought to be the location of the Ascension of Christ.
