This building was the Augustinian monastery of Our Lady, built by the Venetians in the 1500's. When the Ottomans conquered the region in 1646, it was converted to a mosque and the roof was replaced with three domes—the minaret is a 19th century addition. Now it's a conservatory.
When I walked around the side of the building to take a picture of the domes, I found a market in the square, with a speaker blaring Jingle Bell Rock And I fled.
