Holy Church of Panagia Grigoroussa
In the heart of Athens, between the archaeological sites of the Roman Agora and Hadrian's Library, is one of the city's most important pilgrimages, the holy church of Panagia Grigorousa. It was built in 1922 on the site of a Byzantine church. The interior is decorated with impressive frescoes by the Zakynthian iconographer Dimitrios Pelekasis, while a prominent place is occupied by the miraculous icon, a relic of Asia Minor refugees, which was donated to the church and is called "Our Lady Grigorousa", because it quickly fulfills the prayers of the faithful.
