Joseph's Tomb is a traditional burial site located in the city of Nablus, in the West Bank, Palestine. It is believed to be the resting place of the biblical patriarch Joseph, who was sold into slavery by his brothers and later became a prominent figure in Egypt. The site holds significant religious importance for Jews, Samaritans, Christians, and Muslims. Over the years, it has been a focal point of religious pilgrimage and, at times, political tension. The tomb is situated near the ancient city of Shechem, which is also rich in biblical history.
