Church of Saint Menas (Cairo) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Church of Saint Menas (Cairo)
The Coptic Orthodox Church of Saint Menas ( ') is a Coptic Orthodox church near Coptic Cairo and is one of the oldest Coptic churches in Egypt, dating back to the 6th century AD.〔Dunn, Jimmy. (The Church of Saint Menas in Old Cairo and the Annexed Churches of Saint Bahnam and Saint George ). ''Tour Egypt.'' Accessed 21 August 2008.〕 ==Geographic Significance== St. Mena's church is on the north end of Coptic Cairo, located in a region known as ''Fum al-Khalig'' (), north of the Roman aqueduct and the famed Babylon Fortress, at a Christian cemetery in the north end of Old Cairo. Fum al Khalig is technically ''north'' of Old Cairo, however, it is still under the Coptic Orthodox Diocese of Old Cairo, Manial and Fum Al-Khalig.〔''Weekly Al-Ahram.'' ("Sqaubles in Coptic Cairo" ). Accessed 21 August 2008.〕 Fum al Khalig is also known as Al-Hamra (; literally: "the red one" in Egyptian Arabic). The Coptic Orthodox Diocese encompasses El-Hamra as well as Coptic Cairo. St. Menas Church is still very near to the ancient Churches of Old Cairo, and is likely the first Coptic Orthodox Church in Cairo aside from several Churches that were all in the Old Cairo area at the time. Not only is it evidence of the past existence of Coptic Orthodox Christianity in Cairo outside of the Old City (being close to the northern tip of the district), but it is also one of few surviving pieces and large remnants of Coptic architecture that remains to this day.
