St. Panteleimon, Byzantine church in Thessaloniki, Greece.

The Church of Saint Panteleimon displays tetrastyle cross-in-square architecture with a central dome and two remaining side chapels at its eastern section.

Following Ottoman control in 1548, the structure transformed into a mosque called İshakiye Camii until its return to Christian worship after 1912.

The church received UNESCO World Heritage status in 1988 alongside other Paleochristian and Byzantine structures in Thessaloniki, marking its architectural value.

Located at the intersection of Iasonidou and Arrianou streets in eastern Thessaloniki, the church stands near the Tomb of Galerius.

The marble fountain and remains of a minaret base from the Ottoman period remain visible within the church structure.
