Built in the 7th century, this old church takes its name from its location: sited above a gateway in the old Roman fortress, and hear about its long history.

Then, take a look at the Ben Ezra Synagogue, once a Christian church, before finishing your tour at the Coptic Museum, located in one of Coptic Cairo’s oldest areas. See some of the 16,000 ancient artifacts on display, including precious icons and books that illustrate the history of Egypt’s Coptic community.
