Beside the coptic church "Mar Miryam" is the Church of St. George. The Church is the principal Greek Orthodox church of Egypt. It is the only round church in Egypt, because it is built atop an old Roman tower and adjoins the Monastery of St. George.

The Church of St. George was built in the 10th century, but a fire destroyed the original structure. The present church dates only from 1904.
