The Latin Church, the first Catholic Church in Jordan, includes a monastery, missionary facilities, a private school and several shops. It was designed in 1870 by the French missionary Jean Morétain (1816-1883) and completed in 1886 by Father Giuseppe Gatti (1839-1887), priest of the Latin Patriarchate, with high cross-vaulted ceilings, eight triple rounded columns and Corinthian capitals carved in stone.
