Its story

The Church of Koimisis Theotokou (Dormition of the Virgin Mary) stands in the Greek quarter of central Bozcaada, among narrow streets and whitewashed houses. It is still used as a place of worship by the island's Greek Orthodox community, and services are held on holy days. Its bell tower defines the skyline of the Greek quarter. The church and the streets around it are the liveliest part of the island showing its multicultural past.
