Saint Mark's Coptic Orthodox CathedralThe present St. Mark's Coptic Cathedral is of recent date, but is said to stand on the site of the church founded by St. Mark himself.[4] St. Mark the Evangelist (author of the second Gospel) has been connected with the city of Alexandria since earliest Christian tradition. Copts believe that the head of St. Mark remains in the church in Alexandria, and parts of his relics are in St. Mark's Cathedral in Alexandria. The rest of what are believed to be his relics are in the St Mark's Basilica in Venice, Italy.[6] Every year, on the 30th day of the month of Paopi, the Coptic Orthodox Church celebrates the commemoration of the consecration of the Cathedral of St. Mark, and displays the purported head of the saint at the cathedral.
