The lecture is held on Sunday, 19 March 2023; 1:00 pm, at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina Main Building, Third Floor Floating Room (F3). It will be delivered by Dr. Ahmed Ghobashy, Associate Professor of Modern and Contemporary History, Heliopolis University for Sustainable Development.
The lecture sheds light on the ruling family of Muhammad Ali Pasha in Egypt—the Dynasty that lasted for nearly 147 years until the Free Officers’ Revolution of 1952—and their most significant contributions to civilization, represented in architectural buildings, hotels, memorials, medals and decorations.
