History
Mansoura was established in 1219 by al-Kamil of the Ayyubid dynasty upon the Phatnitic branch of the Nile on the site of several older villages, such as Al-Bishtamir (البشطمير) and Kafr al-Badamas (كفر البدماص, from Ancient Greek ποταμός 'river, canal'). After the Egyptians defeated the Crusaders during the Seventh Crusade, the city was named Mansoura.
In the Seventh Crusade, the Capetians were defeated and put to flight; between fifteen and thirty thousand of their men fell on the battlefield. Louis IX of France was captured in the main Battle of Fariskur, and confined in the house of Ibrahim Ibn Lokman, secretary of the sultan, and under the guard of the eunuch Sobih. The king's brother was imprisoned in the same house. The sultan provided for their sustenance. The house of Ibrahim Ibn Lokman is now the only museum in Mansoura. It is open to the public and houses articles that used to belong to the French monarch, including his personal thirteenth century toilet.
