History [ edit ]
Bas-relief at the entrance represents Saint Onuphrius in prayer
The monastery was built in 1892 on the site of an early Christian graveyard, consisting of niches hewn into the rock face; during the fourth century, this is where Saint Onuphrius the Anchorite would sit in prayer. In addition to the cave occupied by Saint Onuphrius, there is the Cave of the Apostles, where the Apostles are said to have hidden during the Crucifixion .[2] Constantine I (306–312), and has been enlarged over the centuries. It has been consecrated to Saint Onuphrius, with the grottoes found in the southern part of the church. From this period, the Orthodox have conserved the custom of dedicating a number of funeral chapels to Saint Onuphrius.[3]
The present monastery was built in the nineteenth century.[1]
According to a tradition mentioned by J.E. Hanauer , the Arab residents of Silwan claimed that the rock-cut sepulchers beneath the monastery contain the remains of Christian hermits executed during the persecutions of Fatimid ruler Al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah .[4]
