Citadel of Qaitbay, or Fort of Qaitbay, a fortress built 1477 by Sultan Al-Ashraf Sayf al-Din Qa'it Bay to defend the coast against the Turks, on Pharos Island at the eastern harbour of Alexandria, Egypt. The building was built by Qagmas Al-Eshaqy and was renovated in the 19th century under Muhammad Ali Pasha. The citadel was built on the site of the Lighthouse of Alexandria, and now houses the Maritime Museum. In the foreground are colourful boats moored in the harbour. Picture by Manuel Cohen
