What I can see

At Iroon Square, near the archeological site of Eleusis, there are traces of an early Christian basilica of the 5th century and on top of it, a smaller post-Byzantine church has been built. Its interior consists of many marble architectural members of buildings of ancient Eleusis. The early Christian basilica was three-aisled, and only 2 columns of the left collonade survive. Also, their bases were probably bases of columns of ancient Eleusis. On the floor of the church we also see Roman sculptures and there is a throne with lion legs, which is preserved in situ.

 

What I can't see

It has been built on the east side of the central aisle of the early Christian basilica. On the north side of the narthex there was the baptistery, which refers to baptisteries of Asia Minor type.
