The City of Gondar or Gonder was the last capital of the Ethiopian Empire, located in the Begemder province. Founded by Emperor Fasilidas (1635), it is famous for its castles, churches and monasteries, which closely resemble the European. In this short video footage I show excerpts from the morning ceremonies held in the Ethiopian Orthodox Churches of Ilfign Giyorgis and Atatami Mikael, next to the Fasiladas Castle, included on UNESCO’s list of World Heritage Sites since 1979.
