The Church of the Holy Sepulchre is built over the burial tomb of Our Lord Jesus Christ. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_the_Holy_Sepulchre yes, it was the one purchased by Joseph of Arimathea where no one else had ever been laid.

I went to the tomb on my honeymoon.

It was very pokey.  Couldn't stand up in there.
