🇸🇦 One of the World's Oldest Churches from the 4th Century in Saudi Arabia. ⛪️ The Jubail Church, discovered by chance in 1986, is a historic site belonging to the Nestorian tradition (Church of the East) and is considered one of the oldest surviving church structures in the world, dating back to the 4th century. Located near the city of Jubail in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia along the Gulf, the structure was built by Christian communities and clergy active along the trade routes between Mesopotamia and the Gulf, likely including local populations under the cultural influence of the Lakhmid Kingdom that dominated the region at the time. Constructed of mud-brick among the desert dunes, the church features clearly visible carved cross motifs on its walls; the site serves as one of the most concrete architectural proofs of the region's rich pre-Islamic religious diversity and the presence of an extensive episcopal network that once spread along the Gulf coast.
