Ras El Tin Palace

The Palace construction was initiated by Mohamed Ali himself in 1834 to take the shape of a Roman fort and to serve as another ruling headquarters similar to the functions of Salah El-Din Citadel. Architect Yezi Bek, was commissioned to design and build the Palace.

Construction works ran from1834-1848 and concluded after 13 years of labor. The only remnant of the older version of the Palace is the eastern gate, “Mohamed Ali Gate” and some granite columns.
