Zeitoun is one of the locations where the Holy Family supposedly stopped on their flight to Egypt,
fleeing King Herod’s murder of the innocents some nineteen centuries earlier. From April 2, 1968
to May 29, 1971, the Virgin Mary appeared weekly on average, especially around feast days, on top
of St. Mary’s Coptic Church in Zeitoun for all to see.
Reputed by 250,000 allegedly, there are several sources online, for information.

I, personally, never ever heard about these visitations, which is unusual.
