Pompey, Alexandria Overview

One of the last standing ancient monuments of Alexandria, Pompey’s Pillar is a Roman Pillar created during the reign of Emperor Diocletian. The Pillar is located on Abu Mandour Street at the city's western end. You can read a greek inscription on the magnificent pillar and travel down a few stairs to view the archaeological remains of the ancient Serapium.

The vertical column is made of red granite with a base and capital and stands around the ruins of a historical temple of Serapis, the Greco-Egyptian deity of the Sun.
