The Coptic Church was built in the 6th century for the Nubian saint Amba Batrayo. In order to prevent ordinary people from entering, it was built in the middle of the desert and surrounded by high walls. It is a typical Coptic monastery. It can accommodate more than 300 monks. But it was attacked by the Arabs in 1321 and is now in ruins. However, its architectural style features have been preserved so far, so you can imagine the life of practitioners.
