Not far from Gondar lies the Debre Berhan Selassie monastery, which is decorated with beautiful and unique wall paintings from 1694. Debre Berhan Selassie translates as "Monastery of the Trinity on the Mountain of Light" and was founded by Emperor Iyasu around 1700. It is impressive and surprising at the same time how extensively the paintings are in the anteroom accessible to visitors.
Winged angel heads even look down on visitors from the wooden monastery ceiling. The famous ceiling paintings and wall paintings are among the most precious in Ethiopian iconography.
