The Ottoman Medrese Cami mosque, built in the mid 19th century, is the largest and best preserved of the four surviving mosques in Veria. As its name suggests, it was originally part of a medressa, a Koranic school. (See photos and information about the Medressa in Kavala.) |

The Medrese Cami stands on a steep, narrow street near the Saint Paul Monument, on the west side of Veria. |
