Agios Georgios Karytsi, Eastern Orthodox church in Karytsi Square, Athens, Greece.
The Agios Georgios Karytsi church exhibits traditional Byzantine architectural elements, with a central dome and symmetrical bell towers rising above Karytsi Square.
During the Greek War of Independence in the early 19th century, this church functioned as both a religious sanctuary and a gathering place for community members.
The interior walls display detailed religious frescoes and orthodox iconography, following the established traditions of Eastern Orthodox Christian art and worship.
Located at 5 Plateia Karytsi in central Athens, the church remains open to visitors and maintains regular services throughout the week.
The church combines elements from different periods of Greek architecture, resulting in a structure that connects classical Athens with modern religious practices.
