Villa des Barons Menasce, Palace in Alexandria, Egypt
The Villa des Barons Menasce stands as a grand residential structure with architectural features displaying European and Middle Eastern design elements in Alexandria.
The Belgian industrialist Edward Menasce commissioned the construction of this palace in the early twentieth century, establishing it as a symbol of Alexandria's prosperity.
The palace demonstrates the fusion of European residential architecture with local Egyptian building traditions through its detailed ornamental work and spatial arrangement.
Located in the Muharrim Bey district of Alexandria, the palace has undergone extensive restoration work and will open to public visits.
