Kiryat Luza (Arabic: قرية لوزة, Hebrew: קרית לוזה) is an Israelite Samaritan village situated on Mount Gerizim near the city of Nablus in the West Bank. It is within Area B of the West Bank, and as a result is under the joint control of Israel and the Palestinian National Authority. Kiryat Luza is home to roughly half of the world's total Samaritan population, with the other half located in the Israeli city of Holon.
