Alexandria’s religious landscape reflects its cosmopolitan history, featuring significant sites from Islamic, Coptic, Anglican, and Jewish traditions. The 13th-century El Morsi Abou El Abbas Mosque showcases intricate Andalusian architecture, while Saint Mark’s Coptic Orthodox Cathedral stands on the site of the oldest church in Africa. The Eliyahu Hanavi Synagogue, one of the largest in the Middle East, and the 19th-century Saint Mark Anglican Cathedral highlight the city's diverse heritage.
