Capurnaum and environs. The area Jesus spent a considerable perod of his ministry.

Capurnaum is on the shores of the Galilee

Inside the Roman Catholic church on the shores of the Galilee at Capurnaum, that covers the house of Peter the fisherman. This pic shows the fenced area that looks down on the excavations of Peters house. A very humble fishermans abode. The church was built over the house as protection!

A pic taken from beneath the church foundations, of the actual stone walls of Peters house. This has supposedly been confirmed as Peters actual house.

The synagogue at Capurnaum, this synagogue has actually been reconstructed on the floor of the original synagogue where Jesus preached frequently & where he cast a 'demon,' out of a man. This is also nearby the hills where the 'Sermon on the Mount' was given & where Jesus fed the 5000 hungry people.

Not so hungry, but three very hot ladies taking some time out under the trees in the Capernaum area, which has another extensive area of excavations.
