Inside the Church of Abu Serga: A Hidden Gem Where the Holy Family Sought Refuge
p

This article explores the Church of Abu Serga in Old Cairo, a significant site where the Holy Family—Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus—are believed to have rested during their flight into Egypt. The church, dating back to the 4th century, houses a cave where the family stayed, a well they drank from, and stones associated with their presence. Named after martyrs Saints Sergius and Bacchus, the church is a notable destination for both religious pilgrims and tourists. The piece also discusses ongoing efforts by Egypt’s Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities to promote the Trail of the Holy Family, enhancing infrastructure at 25 recognized sites to boost cultural and religious tourism.
