Шаблон:Infobox UNESCO World Heritage Site The Church of Saint Catherine (Шаблон:Lang-el) is a late Byzantine church in the northwestern corner of the Ano Poli, Thessaloniki, Greece.

History

The church dates to the Palaiologan period, but its exact dating and original dedication are unknown. From its interior decoration, which survives in fragments and is dated to ca. 1315, it has been suggested that it was the katholikon of the Monastery of the Almighty. It was converted to a mosque by Yakup Pasha in the reign of the Ottoman sultan Bayezid II (r. 1481–1512) and named after him Yakup Pasha Mosque (Шаблон:Lang-tr). In 1988, it was included among the Paleochristian and Byzantine monuments of Thessaloniki on the list of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.Шаблон:Sfn
