When the Department of Egyptian Antiquities at the Louvre reopened, it boasted new exhibition spaces devoted to the Coptic collection. Here, visitors can discover a real-size reconstruction of the vestiges of the south church of the Bawit monastery. This short documentary film follows the various stages in the elaboration of this reconstruction.
