Lake Nasser Temples of Kalabsha, Aswan Overview

A recognised UNESCO World Heritage site, the Lake Nasser Temple of Kalabsha is one of Egypt's most magnificent archaeological sites. This temple, constructed during the Ptolemaic period, is devoted to a Nubian solar deity called Mandulis by the Greeks and Merwel by the Romans. Later, it was used as a church. Visit this archaeological site to learn more about the history of this region.

This beautiful Ptolemaic and Roman building, which looks over the High Dam, was relocated 30 miles after the High Dam was built. Since it was started and completed by two emperors, one from the Ptolemaic dynasty and the other from the Roman emperor Augustus, it has a unique combination of both themes.
