Has Israel's capital been the sacred city of three major religions?

Jerusalem certainly has holy sites of the three major monotheistic religions and adherents of those religions living within its walls, but depending on how "home" is defined, this may or may not qualify. The leadership of all Christian Churches and all Islamic Mosques in Jerusalem are governed by councils operating outside of Jerusalem, so the homes of those religions can be as far away as Rome, Addis Ababa, or Mecca. Based on that, only Judaism has its home and central apparatus in Jerusalem. Other religions have a presence and wonderful sites, but not a home, even if the people of those religions have made Jerusalem their home.
