Bethlehem Cave and Nativity Museum

The Bethlehem Cave, located in Nativity of the Lord Jesus Church, is a replica of the cave where Jesus was born as it appears today in the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. It serves as a chapel and a place for pilgrimage. It includes the Altar of the Nativity, the Altar of the Magi and the Manger of the Infant Jesus. Only two such replicas exist in the U.S. The Nativity Museum displays a collection of Nativity scenes from different countries. Additional highlights include a 16th century church bell and stained glass windows depicting the Christmas gospels.
