Church of Saint Dionysius the Areopagite, Orthodox church in Kolonaki, Greece
The Church of Saint Dionysius the Areopagite features three aisles in a neo-Renaissance style at the intersection of Panepistimiou Avenue and Omirou Street.
Architect Anastasios Orlandos designed this religious structure, which was completed in 1931 as a testament to Greek Orthodox architectural traditions.
The church bears the name of Saint Dionysius, the first Bishop of Athens who converted to Christianity after hearing Paul the Apostle's sermon.
Located in central Athens, the church maintains regular services and welcomes visitors to explore its marble interior and religious artifacts.
The interior displays twelve columns made of green marble from Tinos island, complementing the Pentelic marble floor throughout the building.
