The Church of St Kyriaki in Kumkapı, a neighborhood of Fatih district in Istanbul, is an Eastern Orthodox church completed in 1894. Designed by architect Periklis Fotiadis, the building exemplifies Byzantine Revival architecture, a style that looked back to the traditions of Byzantine churches while employing contemporary construction methods and materials. Built during the late Ottoman period, the church served Istanbul's Greek Orthodox community and remains a testament to the architectural heritage of the city's diverse religious communities.
