Perched on the hillside of Ano Poli, Vlatadon Monastery is one of the oldest functioning monasteries in Thessaloniki. Tradition holds it was founded on the spot where the Apostle Paul preached during his visit in 50 AD, making it a pilgrimage site.
Founded in the 14th century by the Vlattis brothers, students of Gregory Palamas, the monastery has been continuously occupied for over 600 years.
