Hanging Church

Church Cairo, Egypt

The little jewel of Cairo Hanging Church

The Hanging Church is also referred to as the Hanging Church or Al-Moallaqa. It is called the Hanging Church because it was built on the southern gate of the Roman fortress. Palm tree trunks and layers of stones were built over the ruins of the Roman fortress to be used as foundations. The Hanging Church is a unique church and has a wooden roof in the shape of Noah's ark.
