About

Cairo Governor Dr. Ibrahim Saber visited the Naguib Mahfouz Museum at Tekiyt Abu El-Dahab in the Gamaleya neighborhood as part of the state's celebration of Nobel Laureate Naguib Mahfouz under the slogan "Mahfouz in the Heart."

The governor was accompanied by Deputy Cairo Governor Ibrahim Abdel Hadi, Assistant Minister of Culture Hamdi El-Sattouhi, and several students participating in the “Manufacture and Innovate” exhibition held at the Nasr City Technical School.

During his visit, Governor Saber said commemorating Naguib Mahfouz reflects the Egyptian's state belief in the importance of honoring its intellectual and creative icons and introducing them to new generations.

The museum chronicles various stages of the life of writer Naguib Mahfouz. It houses his literary and personal belongings, along with the awards he received both locally and internationally, most notably the Nobel Prize. The exhibition halls highlight his upbringing, personal life, and his distinguished literary career.
