Rotunda of Galerius

The Rotunda is a massive round brick building raised early in the 4th century AD under the Roman emperor Galerius, either as a temple or as his mausoleum. It later became a church and then a mosque, whose minaret still stands beside it, and its dome keeps parts of the early Christian mosaics. It belongs to Thessaloniki's UNESCO-listed early Christian and Byzantine monuments.
