Church of St. Joseph: This sacred building is substantially modern in appearance. The architectural features of the outside of the church, known also as the Church of the Holy Family imitate the Romanesque style. The present church, which belongs to the Franciscans, is the result of the reconstruction, during thr first quarter of our century, of a thirteenth century building. The fact that this older church was built over other ancient buildings which have revealed vestiges of baths and grottoes and the remains of further, even more ancient constructions, has given weight to the supposition that the carpentry workshop of Joseph was situated there. However, the convent of the Dames de Nazareth and that of St. Gabriel also claim to have the site of the workshop of Jesus' putative father; this is only one example of the numerous disputes over the exact location of the Gospel places in the Holy Land
