Nestled in the western compound of the main church area, the Menagesha site holds profound historical significance as the ceremonial heart of the Axumite monarchy. It was here that kings were crowned amid vibrant and colorful rituals, marking the dawn of a new reign. While the stones at this site have weathered over time, they remain in their original form, allowing visitors to connect with the grandeur of Axum's ancient coronation ceremonies. Today, the site continues to be a place of communal prayer and spiritual rituals each morning, adding a living tradition to its rich historical legacy. The site offers a unique opportunity to witness both the reverence of the past and the continuity of sacred practices in the present.
