Tolerance Monument
Located in the courtyard of the church of the Monastery of Latrun, in the “Garden of Brotherhood”. The monument shows the three religions with three figures symbolizing the example of religious tolerance, the figures are: Rashi – a great interpreter of the Bible, Bernard of Clairvaux – the father of the Trappist Order, Saladin – the Ayyubid governor who showed great generosity to the Crusaders.
According to tradition, pilgrims place a stone next to the monument, thus placing a part of their heart in strengthening interfaith tolerance.
