Panagia Achiropiitos (or Agia Paraskevi) is a very beautiful, ancient church that dates back to the 5th century A.D. It is full of wonderful mosaics with golden background between the columns and the interior with its three aisles is very impressive with their perfect proportions. Be careful to check the opening hours as they are unstable. I was there in a Sunday morning's Mass and it was stunningly beautiful. It brings you back to another era. Definitely worth seeing while you are in Thessaloniki.

Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 13 reviews
The Municipal Art Gallery of Thessaloniki, founded in 1966, is housed in Casa Bianca, a listed monument of the recent architectural heritage of Thessaloniki. Casa Bianca was built by the Italian architect Piero Arrigoni in the early 20th century and housed the Jewish family Fernandez-Diaz. It is considered a characteristic example of architectural eclecticism. The building, property of the Municipality of Thessaloniki since 1990, was restored in 1997. Casa Bianca is hosting temporary exhibitions on the ground floor, a permanent exhibition of the works of Nikolaos Gyzis on the first floor and part of the Modern Greek engraving and scupture collection in the attic. In the lower ground floor the history of the building, the Fernandez’ family and the surrounding area are presented.
5. Cultural Center of Thessaloniki
The Cultural Centre of MIET in Thessaloniki which has the privilege to be housed in a unique early 20th century building, opened in January 1989 under the name of the National Bank Cultural Centre of Northern Greece and operated as such until February 1997. During this period the Centre contributed to the intellectual and artistic life of Thessaloniki, presenting exhibitions on art and history.
