L'arbre de la Vierge, c1880. Creator: Abdullah Freres
L'arbre de la Vièrge, c1880. Tree of the Virgin, near Cairo. According to the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, the holy family sought refuge under a tree in Matariyya (the ancient city of Heliopolis), today known as "Mary's Tree." It became a popular religious site visited by many people from all over the world throughout the ages. The original tree eventually grew weak and fell in 1656 AD. A group of Franciscan priests gathered its branches and replanted them. The tree drew the attention of medieval historians such as al-Maqrizi and Imam al-Suyuti, both of whom paid it a visit. Orientalist travellers such as Stanley Lin also visited the site, as did the French Empress Eugènie during the inauguration of the Suez Canal in 1869, during the reign of Khedive Ismail. Some French soldiers passed by the tree in 1800, during the battle of Ain Shams between the French and Ottoman armies. The soldiers carved their names with their swords into the tree's branches.
