The Agios Ioannis church (Holy Metropolitan Church of St. John the Baptist of Messina) is the metropolitan church of the city of Messini. In 1986 during devastating earthquakes the church was badly damaged and eventually demolished. Today, a new large church with two large bell towers has been erected. The new church was built in the form of the previous one with some changes such as the dome, the second bell tower and the removal of the porch. The inauguration of the new church was held on October 17, 1993.
