The Metropolis of the fortified town of Mystras is located near the entrance of the archaeological museum of the Lower Town. It dates back to the late 13th century 1291-1292 and it initially had the form of a three naved basilica. The church, after various transformations, evolved into a cross-in-square church with five cupolas, a typical example of a late byzantine church.
