The Theophrouritos Eptalophos City, although it has suffered various destructions, earthquakes, and looting over time, still presents exceptional ecclesiastical monuments, which stand out with their renowned sanctity and modesty.

They resoundingly proclaim the grandeur and glory of our Orthodox tradition and testify to the honorable yet mortal struggles and anxieties of our pious Nation and the Church.

Among the many holy Shrines, three historical Holy Churches hold a special place near the Chair of Orthodoxy: the Panagia of Blachernae, the Panagia of Muchliotissa, and Saint Demetrius of Xylopota, which serve as a connecting link between the past and the present.
