The Fethiye Museum
The Church of Theotokos Pammakaristos (Joyous Mother of God Church) was built in 1292 by John Comnenus, who was probably related to the royal family, and his wife Anna Doukaina. In 1573 Murat III converted the church into a mosque and renamed it in honor of his conquest over Georgia and Azerbaijan.
The mosaic panels in the dome show the Pantocrator surrounded by his prophets whilst in the apse, Christ Hyperagathos is shown with the Virgin and St John the Baptist. The Baptism of Christ mosaic also survives intact to the right of the dome.
