Important sites on Mount Zion today are Dormition Abbey , King David's Tomb and the Room Of The Last Supper . The Chamber Of The Holocaust (Martef Hashoah), the precursor of Yad Vashem is also located on Mount Zion. Other places of interest are the Christian cemetery where Oskar Schindler , a Righteous Gentile who saved hundreds of Jews in the Holocaust , is buried. The winding road leading up to Mount Zion is known as Pope's Way (Derekh Ha'apifyor) because it was paved in honor of the historic visit to Jerusalem of Pope Paul VI in 1964. Between 1948 and 1967, this narrow strip of land was a designated no-man's land between Israel and Jordan . |
