The Resurrection Church (Latin: Ecclesia Resurrectionis Domini Nostri Iesu), or the Church of the Crusaders in Abu Gosh, is the name given to a Catholic religious building consisting of a structure of the time of the Crusaders who belonged to the Knights Hospitaller, and today is a part of the Benedictine monastery in Abu Ghosh, in central Israel. The church is located in a place that was interpreted as described in Luke as Emmaus. The Crusader church was probably a Byzantine church, and this in turn was built on a Roman fortress.
