Church of the Panagia Myrtidiotissa

This Greek Orthodox church dedicated to the Panagia Myrtidiotissa sits in the Mikrolimano area of Piraeus, where it's considered a landmark of the neighborhood. It has a distinctly picturesque character that sets it apart from larger urban churches. The church celebrates its feast day on September 23rd, drawing locals for the annual panegyri (festival) dedicated to this particular Marian icon, which originates from the island of Kythira.
