Douma is a village in
Lebanon located 80 km from Beirut.
Douma is administratively part
of Batroun District and is known for its
location in a valley surrounded by
mountains. It stands at an altitude of
1070 m. Almost all of its houses are
covered in red tiles. It has a temperate
climate and an abundance of vineyards
and olive and apple groves.
The Great Famine of Mount Lebanon
during World War 1 precipitated a wave
of emigrants from Douma to the
Americas and their remittances
significantly contributed to boosting the
village's economy. Most infrastructure
and houses in Douma were built
between 1881 and 1914, largely
financed by emigrants from the village
in Brazil, Argentina and the United
States of America.
Douma has been recognized among the best tourism villages for 2023 by UN Tourism
The Monastery of the Holy Savior
(kreim-Ghosta) is the Mother House
where the Congregation of Maronite
Lebanese Missionaries was founded
in 1865
