Church of the Holy Apostles

The Church of the Holy Apostles is one of the oldest places in modern Greece. Its construction dates back to the 10th century, at the beginning of the prosperity of Athens. There is a church in the Athenian Agora, where it was built on the site of an ancient Roman temple. The church also has another name - the Church of the Holy Apostles Solakis or Agia Apostoli. In the middle of the 20th century, the church was subjected to large-scale restoration and began to receive tourists and other guests, striking with its splendor and pristine beauty. In addition to the spiritual function, the church also performed a military-strategic function. Currently, the temple opens its doors only on the day of the Holy Apostles, at other times it can be visited only as a memorable sacred place. You can get to the church by metro or car, going to Agora through the square. The temple is located next to the Agora Museum.
