St. Mark's Cathedral in Alexandria
It bears the name of Saint Mark the Apostle, where Saint Mark probably entered Alexandria in the year 60 AD. On the west side, coming from the five cities and crossing one of the city streets, his shoes were cut off, so he went to a shoemaker named Ioannis to repair his shoes.
Ioannis opened his home, and as he made his shoes his hand was cut off and the saint healed and later became a Christian. And his home became the first temple for all who believed in Christianity.
In the year 68 AD, the pagans attacked the church where the faithful had settled in the sea and arrested Saint Mark and dragged him into the streets of the city until his flesh was scattered and his blood was shed on the streets of Alexandria. .
Saint Mark the Apostle was the first to bring Christianity to Alexandria and is one of the seventy messengers that Christos recommended to spread to the ground and the creator of the theological school and rapporteur of the Gospel of Mark and the founder of the Cathedral to The cathedral is located on Coptic Church Street in Ramli Station.
