Church of the Incorporeal Beings
This little Church of the Incorporeal Beings stands in a little square in the lower part of Ermoú Street, at the junction with Asomáton and Lepeniótou Streets in Athens.
It was built in the 11th century and restored a few years ago. Like many old buildings in Athens, it now lies below the present street level.
After the Greek war of liberation from the Turks, the church was converted to secular use and was occupied by a pharmacy.
