It was built by Salah al-Din (Saladin) in 1176 AD to defend the city from Crusader invasions. For centuries, it served as the seat of power for Egypt’s rulers, from the Ayyubids and Mamluks to the Ottomans .and commissioned in the 19th century by Muhammad Ali Pasha, the Ottoman ruler who modernized Egypt. Completed in 1848, the mosque was inspired by Istanbul’s Blue Mosque and is one of the most prominent Ottoman-style mosques outside of Turkey.
Tour the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC) with the Royal Mummies Hall: Located in Fustat, Old Cairo — just a short drive from the Citadel — the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC) represents a groundbreaking development in how Egypt tells its own story. Officially opened in 2021, NMEC is the first museum in Egypt dedicated to presenting the entire history of Egyptian civilization across different time periods, from prehistory through to the modern era.
The Concept and Design
Unlike traditional museums that display artifacts by type or theme, NMEC adopts a chronological approach, offering a smooth and immersive journey through ancient, Greco-Roman, Coptic, Islamic, and contemporary Egypt. The modern architecture of the museum, inspired by Egypt’s desert and Nile heritage, blends simplicity and symbolism. Spacious galleries, digital displays, and interactive technology make the experience informative and engaging for all ages.
