SAINT BARBARA'S CHURCH
Coptic church with relics of Saint Barbara and a metal gate giving access to the Coptic cemetery in a haven of peace.
The Coptic Church of St. Barbara is of a structure comparable to that of the Church of St. Sergius. It was built in the 4th and 5th centuries, destroyed and rebuilt in the 11th century. It contains the relics of St Barbara, a Christian martyr murdered by the hands of her pagan father. 10 m from Saint Barbara, a metal gate leads to the Coptic cemetery, a haven of peace with alleys shaded by eucalyptus trees, with tombs close to the pavilion architecture, where families like to spend an afternoon in the company of their dead.
