Welcome to Kasralainy

History

Kasralainy was the continuation of Abozabal Militery Hospital Which was build By Mohamed Ali Bashaa Ruler of Egypt with the aid of French Doctor Cot Beck in 1826.

It was out a desire for expansion, that the School of Medicine was moved from Abou Zaabal to Kasr El-Ainy at 1837.

This new site was preferred not only because it could accommodate 1,500 beds and 300 students, but also because it was situated in the heart of Cairo, compared to Abou Zaabal, which lies oil the outskirts of the Egyptian capital. At present, Kasr El-Ainy is so well known that its name is taken for granted. Nobody even attempts to think of how it acquired this name. In fact, it takes its name from the influential man who built it in the J5th century as a palace to live in, El-Mokerr El-Shehabi Ahmed Ibn El-Ainy.

It then became a hotel for kings and princes, and remained so until the French Occupation of Egypt transformed it into a military hospital.
