The Garden at Gethsemane holds an important place in the Gospel story, since Jesus spent there the night before his arrest, praying in mortal anguish.
According to the texts, Jesus and his disciples came to the site in this garden "beyond the Kidron (cedron) brook", and Jesus prayed alone. Judas (Judah) knew this hiding place from previous times, and gave its position to the Romans. Jesus was apprehended at night (as per John), and led to a Jail within the city.
