Saint Isidore Church Lycabettus Hill

The Church of Saint Isidore is tucked into the western slope of Lycabettus Hill, where it is anchored directly into the limestone rock. Part of the structure is built into a large cave, making the mountain wall itself the back of the church and the location of its altar. The building is an old, single-aisled basilica topped with a wooden roof, and it has existed on this slope since at least the fifteenth or sixteenth century.
