Alexan Pasha Palace, Early 20th-century palace in Asyut, Egypt
The three-story Alexan Pasha Palace stands on El Gumhuriya Street, extending across 7,000 square meters of land in central Asyut.
The Egyptian government purchased this residence in 1995 and the Supreme Council of Antiquities included it in the list of Islamic monuments.
International artisans from Italy, France, and England collaborated on the construction, incorporating their architectural styles into the palace's design.
The palace undergoes a transformation into Asyut's first national museum, with restoration costs reaching 10 million Egyptian pounds.
The World Monuments Fund recognized this palace among 25 significant sites in their 2020 World Monuments Watch publication.
