A hammered brass commemorative plate resting on a red embroidered cloth, inscribed with the phrase 'The Well Which The Holy Family Drank From' in English, Arabic, and Coptic script, with Coptic cross symbols. The plate is displayed at Abu Serga Church (Saint Sergius and Bacchus Church) in Mar Girgis, Old Cairo — one of the oldest Coptic churches in Egypt, traditionally believed to be built over the crypt where the Holy Family rested during their flight into Egypt. Abu Serga Church is a major pilgrimage site for Coptic Christians and a significant landmark in the religious history of Egypt.
