The St. Peter's Church[1] (Hebrew: כנסיית פטרוס הקדוש Latin: Ecclesia Sancti Petri) is a religious building belonging to the Catholic Church which is next to a monastery in Tiberias,[2] a town on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee, in the Lower Galilee, in northern District of Israel.
The church was founded in the early twelfth century by the Crusaders.
With the conquest of Tiberias by Muslims after the defeat of Christians in the Battle of Hattin in 1187 it became a mosque.
During the eighteenth century, the interest of the members of the Franciscan order in the church, began to visit her, first at the feast of St. Peter, and then permanently renewed.
After World War II was built a memorial wall depicting various issues related to the Catholic Church in Poland and the central image of the Black Madonna of Czestochowa.
