Inn of the Good Samaritan
Khan al-Hatruri (Arabic: خان الحترورة), known in Western terms as the Inn of the Good Samaritan, is a ruined former caravanserai located on the road between Jerusalem and Jericho, 298 meters above sea level. It now houses a museum of ancient mosaics and other archaeological findings from the Palestinian territories, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Historically, the hill dominating the caravansary site from the northeast was repeatedly fortified, and traveller inns were build a little below the hilltop. This is reflected in the presence of two distinct, if related, archaeological sites in close proximity to each other, although today they are separated by the modern Jerusalem–Jericho highway.
