According to Christian tradition and the gospel accounts, Jesus' body was buried in a tomb that originally belonged to Joseph of Arimathea, a wealthy man who offered his own sepulcher for Jesus' burial after the crucifixion
. This tomb is traditionally believed to be located within the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in the Christian Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem
. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre is venerated as the site of Jesus' crucifixion (at Calvary or Golgotha) and his empty tomb, where Christians believe he was buried and then resurrected
. Archaeological investigations, including the opening of the tomb's marble covering for the first time in centuries, have revealed the limestone shelf where Jesus' body was thought to have been placed, supporting the tradition that this is the authentic burial site
. While some other locations, such as the Garden Tomb, have been proposed as possible burial sites, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre remains the most widely accepted and historically significant location, established since the 4th century by Emperor Constantine
. However, definitive archaeological proof remains elusive, and the exact location continues to be a matter of faith and scholarly debate
. In summary, Jesus' body is traditionally believed to have been buried in the tomb located within the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, a site revered by many Christian denominations as the place of his burial and resurrection
