Thessaloniki. This structure is called "the Rotonda", it was originally built as a mausoleum for a Roman emperor, then became a church, then was turned into a mosque by the Ottomans (hence the minaret) It's really enormous, the walls are 6m thick!

Shame on me! I've been there 3 years ago and I didn't realized that is Rotonda! Now I remember the building.
