The Metropolis Church of Athens is located in the historic center of Athens, on the Avenue of Meteropolis, a place dedicated to the tidings of the Virgin Mary. The church was built between 1842 and 1862, and was originally painted by Theophiles Hansen, but later construction took Dr. Zeppos's advice, following the Greco-Byzantine style, which ultimately perfectly reflected the Byzantine tradition of the church and The perfect blend of classical European elements.

    The church, called Mitropolis Cathedral, was built in 1840 and only completed 15 years later. It is known as the largest and most beautiful church in Greece. The official ceremony of the President's grade country is held here. The church has a magnificent appearance and beautiful interior decoration. The church is close to the famous women's street in Athens.

    The symbolic animal bas-relief on the latch and the small dome introduced to the original dedicated to the "spiritual Virgin Mary", which was also once the city's cathedral. Although now under the shadow of the Catholic Church in Athens, its beautiful posture and historical value dwarf the cathedral on the side.

    You can go in and visit for free, but the lights inside are dim, gloomy, and the atmosphere is depressed. There is a small square outside and there are several good gift shops around.
