The aim of the mobile symposium to Germany, conducted during 21-28 October 2011, was to study visual translations of Jerusalem in Europe, focusing on the German recensions. Scholars and graduate students from the Hebrew University and several German universities held sessions and discussions in situ as well as lectures in conference halls, examining the sites from the standpoint of the disciplines of art history, history, theology and sociology. One of the main aims of the symposium was to experience monumental Jerusalem sites in Germany such as Görlitz, Eichstätt, Nuremberg and Fulda. In the case of St. Michael’s Church in Fulda and in other examples in different media, such as the monumental Sacrament House sculptured by Adam Kraft in St. Lawrence’s Church in Nuremberg, it was made clear that the understanding of these as Holy Sepulchres cannot be generally assumed.
