Tucked within Axum’s old town, Enda Micha’el stands as a silent witness to the grandeur of the 4th–5th century AD. Documented by the Deutsche Aksum-Expedition in 1906, this ruined palace once featured a central pavilion measuring 27 by 27 meters, with 10 rooms arranged in a layout similar to Tea’ka Maryam, though with a unique central division. Today, only weathered stone remnants remain, offering visitors a tangible connection to Axum’s lost architectural brilliance. A walk through these ruins is a step back in time, where echoes of a once-thriving empire still linger in the stones.
