Fethiye Mosque, Athens, Ottoman mosque in Roman Agora, Greece

The Fethiye Mosque features a large central dome, stone walls, and traditional Islamic architectural elements within the Roman Agora archaeological complex.

Built between 1668 and 1670 on the foundations of a Byzantine church, the mosque underwent multiple transformations, including serving as a military bakery after 1834.

The building incorporates architectural elements from classical and Byzantine periods, including Ionic capitals from ancient times within its Ottoman design structure.

Located near the Tower of the Winds, the mosque now functions as an exhibition space and remains accessible to visitors exploring the Roman Agora.

The structure displays structural integration of three distinct architectural periods: Classical Greek, Byzantine, and Ottoman, visible in its construction materials.
