La chiesa dei Santi Apostoli, nota anche come Santi Apostoli di Solaki (in greco moderno: : Άγιοι Απόστολοι Σολάκη) o Agli Apostoli (in greco moderno: Αγιοι Αποστολοι Αθηνα), è ubicata nell'Agorà di Atene e può essere datata intorno al X secolo.
"Solakis" potrebbe essere il nome della famiglia che ha finanziato una ristrutturazione successiva della chiesa, o provenire da "Solaki" l'area densamente popolata intorno alla chiesa nel XIX secolo. La chiesa assume un particolare significato per essere il solo monumento dell'Agorà di Atene, oltre al Tempio di Efesto, a pervenire intatto e per la sua architettura. Fu la prima chiesa importante costruita a Atene, appartenente al periodo medio Bizantino, che segna l'inizio del cosiddetto "tipo ateniese", il quale unisce con successo i semplici quattro pilastri con la croce greca. La chiesa è stata costruita in parte su un Nymphaion del II secolo ed è stata restaurata alla sua forma originale tra il 1954 e il 1957.
Beautiful little church with gorgeous frescoes in various states of repair and disrepair. Absolutely quiet and peaceful. A calm within the storm of the city.
