Athens - Church of Saints Theodore Áyii Theódori (Agii Theodori)

The Church of Saints Theodore, dedicated to the two military saints of that name, stands at the west end of Klafthmónos Square, near the University.

Built in the mid 11th C. on the site of an earlier ninth C. church, it is very characteristic of its period: a domed cruciform church with a handsome ashlar exterior, with lines of brick between the courses of stone, a terracotta frieze of animal and plant ornament and Kufic script. The bell-cote was added later. The interior is modern.
