One of the oldest surviving churches of Thessaloniki, dating back to the 5th century!
It is located in the centre and very close to the Agias Sofias!
Another must visit if you enjoy Byzantine history and architecture!

Byzantine church built on top of a Roman bath, the remnants of which can still be seen. Lovely mosaics. We visited mid morning and we had the church to ourselves.

Thessaloniki is a treasure trove of Byzantine churches, and this is my favorite. It was built in the 400s on top of a former Roman bath house, and the bath house tiles are still visible under glass on the floor. There are some mosaics, and one of the columns has an Ottoman victory inscription.

One of the most important and the oldest (build in 5th century) orthodox churches in Thessaloniki with long and important history from Byzantio years throug the ottomans until today. Beautiful and marvelous environment with very interesting architecture and materials used for creating this church. Protected by UNESCO!

A beautiful church with beautiful frescos and icons. A very peaceful and contemplative place. There are glass panels on the floor which show tile work from earlier Roman buildings on which the church was built.

One of the most beautiful Orthodox Churches in Greece ☦️🇬🇷
I highly suggest you pay it a visit with a tour guide, to learn about its rich history associated with Thessaloniki, the Byzantine Empire and Constantinople.

One of the most beautiful and the oldest Byzantine churche in Thessaloniki. Before your visit to Agia Sofia which is a 5 minute walk it is recommended a visit to this church is a must. No other church has this excuisit columns or the floor moseic. Small café and quiet neighborhood. It is definitely recommended.

Built by late 5th century on a Roman baths complex. Became a mosque under sultan Murad under the Ottomans in 1430 and reverted to a church by 1930.
