Cana - Franciscan Church

In the center of Cana is a Franciscan church consecrated in 1883. Tradition has it that it occupies the site of the house in which the marriage was celebrated. In the nave, just before the steps leading down to the crypt, is a Hebrew inscription commemorating "Joseph, son of Tanhum" (third or fourth century). In the church visitors are shown an old jar, claimed to be one of the six in which the water was changed.
