Latin/English Text: FETIYE MOSQUE
Meaning: "Fethiye Mosque"

This marker indicates the direction or general location of the Fethiye Mosque, which is located in the nearby Ancient Agora of Athens, just a short distance north of the Acropolis. The marker is likely part of the signposting system for archaeological sites in the area.

The Fethiye Mosque (Greek: Φετιχιέ τζαμί; Turkish: Fethiye Camii, "Mosque of the Conquest") is a 17th-century Ottoman mosque in central Athens, Greece. Repurposed after Greek independence in 1834, it fell into disrepair, but after renovations it was reopened to the public in 2017 and is presently being used for cultural exhibitions.
