Church of Saint Eugénie in Port Said

The initial wooden church was constructed in 1867 on land given by the Suez Canal Company, while the current stone building dates from 1890.

The church floors feature marble craftsmanship, and the interior walls display intricate floral and geometric patterns representing local artistic traditions.
