Below we have listed the places in Greece which were mentioned in the New Testament or which are connected with the Apostles or are held for sacred and religious places.
Agia Sophia Church - Thessaloniki
The Agia Sophia is the largest and most famous Byzantine church in Thessaloniki, Greece. The construction date of the Agia Sophia is not determined, but the modern building is not the first to stand on this site: excavations revealed remains of both a Roman building and an Early Christian basilica near the church. In 1585 the Agia Sophia was converted into a mosque by the Turks. After a fire in 1890, it was reconstructed in 1907-10 and rededicated for Christians in 1912.
