Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: A monk unlocks a gate in the Monastery of Saint Bishoy in Wadi El Natrun, Egypt. The Monastery of Saint Bishoy is the most famous Coptic Orthodox monastery. It is located in Wadi El Natrun (the Nitrian Desert), about 100km north and west of Cairo, Egypt. The monastery was founded by Saint Bishoy in the fourth century AD. The monastery has five churches, the main one being named after Saint Bishoy. The other churches are named after the Virgin Mary, Saint Iskhiron, Saint George, and Archangel Michael. The monastery is surrounded by a keep, which was built in the fifth century AD to protect the monastery against the attacks of the Berbers. (Thanks, Wikipedia) |
