Fort Julien (or, in some sources, Fort Rashid) (Arabic: طابية رشيد) is a fort located on the left or west bank of the Nile about north-west of Rashid (Rosetta) on the north coast of Egypt. It was originally built by the Ottoman Empire and occupied by the French during Napoleon Bonaparte's campaign in Egypt and Syria between 1798 and 1801. The fort became famous as the place where the Rosetta Stone was found in 1799. Read more on Wikipedia
