Nazareth Village is the result of years of research and was constructed using ancient materials and building techniques, making it an authentic first-century film set. It is an accurate reconstruction of a Jewish village under Roman occupation, set during the Late Hellenistic period.
Nazareth Village brings to life daily living in the first century, boasting a working farm with sheep, goats and donkeys, a working olive press, an authentic first-century stone quarry, terraces, cultivated grain fields and a vineyard with olive and pomegranate trees.
“I found Nazareth Village to be a wonderful place where a committed staff and authentic first-century location come together to create a unique setting for Biblical productions.” – Chris Mitchell, Middle East Bureau Chief, CBN News.
