First location of the Ascension
Almost 300 years after Jesus was said to have died, early Christians began gathering secretly in a small cave on the Mount of Olives. The issuance of the Edict of Milan by the Roman Emperors Constantine and Liciniusin 313 made it possible for Christians to worship without government persecution.
Second location of the Ascension
By the time of the pilgrim Egeria's travels to Jerusalem in 384, the spot of veneration had been moved to the present location, so that Egeria witnessed the celebration of the Ascension at an "open hillock" uphill from the nearby cave; the cave itself had been integrated into the Constantinian Church of Eleona.
4th-century church
The first church was erected there a few years later, sometime between AD 384–390, by Poimenia, a wealthy and pious Roman aristocratic woman from the imperial family, who financed the building of the Byzantine-style church "around Christ's last footprints." The first complex constructed on the site of the present chapel was known as Imbomon (Greek for "on the hill"). It was a rotunda, open to the sky, surrounded by circular porticoesand arches. The Imbomon, as well as the nearby Eleona Basili...
Edicule
The main structure of the chapel is from the Crusader era; the stone dome and the octagonal drum it stands on are Muslim additions, as are the exterior walls; only the arches and marble columns are part of the original Christian structure. The entrance faces west, and the south wall of the mosque/chapel consists of a mihrab indicating the direction of Meccafor Muslim worshippers.
"Ascension Rock"
The edicule surrounds a stone slab called the "Ascension Rock". It is said to contain the right footprint of Christ, while the section bearing the left footprint was taken to the Al-Aqsa Mosque in the Middle Ages. The faithful believe that the impression was made as Jesus ascended into Heaven and is venerated as the last point on earth touched by the incarnateChrist.

Each of the three Abrahamic religionsattributes the tomb to a different female holy figure.
The mosque that stands southwest to the former Church of the Ascension, known as the zawiyaof Rabi'a al-'Adawiyya, consists of two structures: the upper one, or the mosque proper, and an underground chamber.
Across the street from the chapel is a Greek Orthodox Monastery of the Ascension with a small church built between 1987 and 1992.[better source needed] South of the Ascension Chapel is the monastery containing the remains of the Constantinian Eleona Church and the 19th-century Church of the Pater Noster.
