HISTORIC PRESERVATION
IN THE ‘CITY OF THE DEAD’
We are working in the Sultan Qaitbey area in the ‘City of the Dead’ in Cairo to ensure long-term preservation of heritage by making it useful for the local community.
EVENTS IN THE MAQ’AD OF SULTAN QAITBEY
Conserved and adapted by ARCHiNOS, the onetime reception hall of Sultan Qaibey is now a hub for art and culture in the City of the Dead run by our not-for-profit arm, the Sultan Foundation.
OUTSIDE OF EGYPT
We do most of our work in Egypt, but we are also involved elsewhere. In 2021, we teamed up with the renowned Saudi company IKK and initiated work in Saudi Arabia. The cooperation continues.
UNKNOWN HERITAGE
Alongside mediaeval masterpieces of Islamic architecture, the “Desert of the Mamluks” contains hundreds of unlisted and unprotected later monuments. ARCHiNOS is documenting this vulnerable heritage.
