Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Church of Saint Symeon in Mytilene (Greek: Άγιος Συμεών Μυτιλήνης) is a church on the island of Lesvos in the city of Mytilene close to the old market. In the archive of the Metropolitan Church of Mytilene documentation can be found regarding the church on page 30a and 38B beginning 1700. The specific church is mentioned and it may have been built around 1700. A church was built on the site around 1885-1891, it replaced the old church which was smaller and ready to be torn down. This may be attributed to an earthquake in 1867. There exist architectural plans that show a huge church was on the site that predates the building of 1885. Three saints are venerated by the church; Saint Simeon Stylites of Syria, Saint Symeon Stylites of Lesbos and Simeon (Gospel of Luke)

Summary from Ελληνικά / Modern Greek Wikipedia (elwiki)

Ο Άγιος Συμεών Μυτιλήνης είναι εκκλησία στο νησί της Λέσβου στην πόλη της Μυτιλήνης, κοντά στην παλιά αγορά. Στο παλιό κώδικα Μητροπόλεως Μυτιλήνης με τη σελίδα 30α και 38β που ξεκινά με 1700 η εκκλησία αναφέρεται, η εκκλησία μπορεί να χτίστηκε γύρω στο 1700. Η νέα εκκλησία κτίστηκε γύρω στην εποχή του 1885-1891 για να αντικαταστήσει παλιά εκκλησία που ήταν μικρότερη και ετοιμόρροπη λόγω των καταστρεπτικών σεισμών του 1867. Υπάρχουν δείγματα αρχιτεκτονικών μελών σύμφωνα με τα οποία υπήρχε ειδωλολατρικός ναός μεγάλων διαστάσεων. Τρεις άγιοι τιμώνται στον ενοριακό ναό: ο Συμεών ο Στυλίτης από τη Συρία, ο Συμεών ο Στυλίτης ο Λέσβιος και ο Συμεών ο Θεοδόχος.
