The magnificent relic at the center of Siwa's main town. According to ancient Siwan scriptures, 40 Siwans built the fortress in 1203 A.D. to protect the community against raiding Bedouin tribes. Now it is a remarkable landmark and protected historic site in the center of Shali town.
Tombs of Jabal el Mawta
This great mountain is also known as “Mountain of the Dead” in which graves were dug dating back to the Greco-Roman period. The limestone hill is home to over 700 Roman and four 26th Dynasty tombs carved into the rock face. The four 26th Dynasty tombs are open to the public and feature well-maintained mural drawings.
The Temple of the Oracle of Amun
The Temple has attracted many visitors over the history of ancient civilizations, the most prominent being Alexander the Great. Alexander the Great came in 331 BC to consult the Oracle of Amun in order to seek confirmation that he was the son of the gods and consequently the legitimate Pharaoh of Egypt.
The Temple of Um Ubeydah​
One kilometer south of Aghurmi there are the remains of the Temple of Um Ubeydah, which dates from the reign of King Nectanebo II (30th Dynasty) and was connected by a processional avenue to the Temple of the Oracle, which lies about 400m away. The only vestige of this monument is a part of the west wall of the pronaos.
