About the Coptic Museum
The Coptic Museum stands in Coptic Cairo, Egypt, and holds a collection of Coptic Christian artifacts larger than any other in the world. Marcus Simaika founded it in 1908 to house Coptic antiquities, on 8,000 square meters of land given by the Coptic Orthodox Church under Pope Cyril V. The building was inaugurated on March 14, 1910.
Its façade was designed to resemble Al-Aqmar Mosque, a 12th-century building. Inside, the museum traces Egyptian history from its earliest times to the present, and its collection links the Pharaonic and Islamic periods. Many of the objects show how Coptic art drew on pharaonic, Graeco-Roman and Islamic traditions. Coptic monuments also blend Ottoman, Axumite, Byzantine, Roman, Greek and Egyptian elements.
The Coptic community donated vestments, frescoes and icons in the early years. The museum became a state institution in 1931, and in 1939 Christian antiquities from the Egyptian Museum were moved into a New Wing completed in 1944. After renovations in the 1980s, two new annexes joined the original aisles; the collection is arranged in twelve chronological sections.
