Domus Galilaeae, or House of Galilee, is a modern Christian meeting place perched on the peak of Mount of Beatitudes in Israel, overlooking Capernaum and the Sea of Galilee. Designed by architect Kiko Argüello and completed in 2003, the building serves as a venue for seminars and conventions run by the Neocatechumenal Way. Pope John Paul II visited the site during his 2000 pilgrimage to Israel and expressed his hope that it would become a center for interreligious dialogue.
