Agii Theodori, Byzantine church in central Athens, Greece
The church structure features a three-aisled wooden-roofed basilica with a narthex and incorporates elements of Byzantine architectural traditions throughout its design.
Built between 1049 and 1065, the church stands on the foundations of an earlier Christian basilica and underwent substantial modifications during the 12th and 13th centuries.
The interior of the church contained intricate mosaics, with a preserved representation of Apostle Andrew now displayed at the Archaeological Museum of Serres.
The religious building maintains regular opening hours for visitors and functions as an active place of worship under the administration of local ecclesiastical authorities.
The church experienced two significant fires in 1849 and 1913, yet continued restorations allowed it to maintain its original structural characteristics and religious function.
