It is a monastic complex consisting of the katholikon, the cells, the Refectory, a fountain and a Byzantine defense tower in the entrance gate. The Monastery was destroyed in the end of the 17th century by Algerian pirates’ raids, who slaughtered the monks, whose heads and relics are displayed in a building of the monastic complex.[16] See also: (Greek) Νταού Πεντέλης Αττικής.

  11. ↑ The holy patriarch-martyr was hanged over the door to the Phanarion and later his body was thrown into the Bosphoros. Ukrainian sailors retrieved his body, thinking him to have been a priest martyred by the Turks. At Odessa, he was positively identified as the patriarch and enshrined there until his glorification as a sainted hieromartyr and return to Athens where he is now enshrined. The Ukrainian Orthodox Church has placed his name in its own calendar, especially owing to his great veneration by Ukrainians.[21] The translation of his relics took place on 25/4/1871.
