A space one can see when walking the footbridge through the complex of St. Stephen. A site mentions: "Probably at the same time as the Church of Saint Stephen [Courtyard Church] was built (8th century), a courtyard south of the Church of Bishop Sergius (dated to 586 AD) was converted into a small church. On the west wall an apse has been added, with a raised presbyterium, originally with a chancel. The floor was entirely covered with rectangular blue/grey stone slabs, including for presbyterium. The funerary character of the church is emphasized by multiple tombs below the slabs inside the church itself. "
