Database: Myrelaion Church

Once and Eastern Orthodox church called Myrelaion, this building served two purposes simultaneously for many years - it was a house of worship above and a crypt below, built by Romanus as a funerary chapel for his wife.

It was later converted into a mosque called Bodrum Camii after the man who restored it. Still later it was abandoned, where it sat in ruins up until its restoration in the 20th century.
