This construction was made possible by contributions from the Greek Orthodox in Venice and Greek sailors passing through the city. Permission to build the church was granted by the Serenissima after numerous requests and endless negotiations. Two social groups played an important role in obtaining this concession: Greek mercenaries who served under Venetian arms and Greek intellectuals. Construction of the building began in 1539 and was completed in 1573.
