Jedha has been described as a destination for all those who believe in and practice the ways of the Force. Jedi may have been wiped out (supposedly, anyway), but there are those across the galaxy who still believe in the Force's power and teachings, and this serves as a Mecca for it.

That's reinforced with one of the trailer's most striking images, which is a huge monument in the dessert to the Jedi, a carving of a man holding a lightsaber. It comes as Mon Mothma says that "our rebellion is all the remains to push back the Empire." - a stark reminder of the state of the Jedi, and the need for, ahem, a new hope.
