Das Monument
Situated on top of Mount Ora, eight kilometres south west of Jerusalem and over looking Bethlehem. The French architect Jean Nouvel has created the World Peace Monument on behalf of the association. With a height of 100 meters and a diameter of 40 meters this unique peace tower cannot be overlooked. The congress and communications centre of the World Peace Monument will become the permanent meeting place of all religions. An institution for peace independent from political structures but under the patronage of the United Nations. Similar to the United Nations but supported and legitimised by millions of World Peace Monument members, the World Peace Monument Centre in Jerusalem shall act as an institution to secure peace in the world. It’s objective is to institutionalise a permanent dialogue between religions, ethnic groups and nations
