Monastery of Elijah



This photo was taken in the interior of the church dedicated to Our Lady of Mount Carmel, and the painting depicts Our Lady giving the Brown Scapular to Saint Simon Stock. The Monastery of Elijah, a fortress-like building on a plateau of Mount Carmel, is the headquarters of the Carmelite Order, which dates from 1212. The church is in the center of the monastery.
