Fallen Jerusalem is an uninhabited island of the British Virgin Islands in the Caribbean, located to the south of Virgin Gorda. It obtained its name from the large number of oversized volcanic boulders that are scattered over the island which give it the vague resemblance of a destroyed city. Fallen Jerusalem Island is situated 2 miles south of Town Bay.
