With a Foreword by Sophia Ahtaridis

A volume of Byzantine Churches of Thessaloniki / Byzantine Church Architecture

“Through the Christianization of the Slavs, Thessaloniki became, during the more than one-thousand-year period of Byzantine history—together with the capital of the Byzantine Empire, Constantinople, with which Thessaloniki was always in close touch—the bearer of Hellenic culture and Orthodox Christianity to the whole of Europe. [...]Seven Byzantine churches of Thessaloniki are described in this book with respect to their architecture and iconographic decoration.”
