BEIT EL-SENNARI
House converted into an Institute of Applied Arts, with exhibitions of glassware, textiles and works by local artists...
This house, built in 1794 by Prince Ibrahim Katkhuda el-Sennari and restored in the 1990s by a French archaeological mission, housed the French scholars who accompanied Bonaparte during his Egyptian campaign between 1798 and 1801, and those who remained thereafter, under the direction of Gaspard Monge. After renovation work, the house was converted into an Institute of Applied Arts, and is now home to exhibitions of glassware, textiles and pottery as well as works by local artists.
