They Closed The Church
The Church of the Holy Sepulchre was closed to worshippers as this critical point in the restoration process approached. Meanwhile, inside the building, the Edicule was surrounded by restorers and members from the Copts, the Greek Orthodox Church, and the Franciscans, all of whom were present to witness Christ’s grave being exposed.

Moropoulou stressed the importance of the case in the run-up to it, saying, “We are at a crucial moment for rehabilitating the Edicule.” The methods we’re employing to record this unique monument will enable people all over the world to research our findings as if they were in the tomb of Christ themselves.”
