Boniface of Ragusa
Boniface of Ragusa was a Franciscan Custos of the Holy Land in Jerusalem and writer.
Allegedly, he participated in the last time the Holy Sepulchre was opened in 1555. He obtained permission to restore parts of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and to build a completely new edicule. This was a major restoration project, and the Franciscan left a detailed description of the work carried out.[1]
