  Moir\'e patterns are produced when two periodic structures with different
spatial frequencies are superposed. The transmission of the resulting structure
gives rise to spatial beatings which are called moir\'e fringes. In classical
optics, the interest in moir\'e fringes comes from the fact that the spatial
beating given by the frequency difference gives information about details(high
spatial frequency) of a given spatial structure. We show that moir\'e fringes
can also arise in the spatial distribution of the coincidence count rate of
twin photons from the parametric down-conversion, when spatial structures with
different frequencies are placed in the path of each one of the twin beams. In
other words,we demonstrate how moir\'e fringes can arise from quantum images.
