Lebanon is a country where crosses are found in the mountains, on city rooftops, and on street corners. Christian symbols here are not only expressions of faith but also legacies of culture, identity, and history.
The upcoming visit of Leo XIV highlights the centuries-old roots of Christianity in this small Mediterranean country.
Lebanon has 18 religious communities, 12 of which are Christian, and this diversity is preserved today. Maronite Christians have historically played an essential role in the country’s governance, having usually held the presidency, further demonstrating the strong presence of Christianity in the country.
