Deir Mawas or Deir Muas is a city in Egypt. It is located in the Minya Governorate, on the west bank of the Nile.
The name of the city likely comes from a now vanished Coptic monastery of Archangel Michael.[2]
On 18 March 1919, the people of Deir Mawas Led by the family of AbouZeid, joined the revolution against Great Britain, which swept across Egypt. They cut the railway-roads and killed a number of British officers, and the British retaliated by executing a number of the city's civilians. The day of 18 March has become the official holiday of Al Minya Governorate in commemoration of those executed by the British.
