- Church of St. Sergius and Bacchus - Known as Abu Serga, this church is constructed on an ancient Roman fort in Old Cairo. Its history is debated, with some scholars dating it to the late fourth to early fifth centuries AD, while others suggest the 17th century AD.
This church holds a significant religious status among Coptic churches due to its association with the Holy Family’s journey through Egypt. It is named after the esteemed early fourth-century saints, Sergius and Bacchus, who were martyred at al-Resafa in Syria for their Christian faith.
- Coptic Orthodox Church of St. George (Mari Girgis) - Situated above one of the fortress towers of Babylon, the Church of St. George is a Greek Orthodox church in Coptic Cairo. Originally built in the 7th century, the current structure was reconstructed after a fire in 1904. St. George is the only round church in Egypt, built on the foundations of a Roman round tower for practical reasons, unlike the original Church of the Holy Sepulchre and its many replicas.
Mar is a Syriac title of respect, meaning my lord, and is used for all saints and bishops. Girgis is the Arabized form of the Greek word Georgios, thus Mar Girgis translates to St. George in English.
