The edifice was built in 1833 near an early Christian Martyrion of the fourth or fifth century, possibly dedicated to the saints Carpus and Papylus , and on the site of an ancient church dedicated to Hagios Polykarpos.
The modern church has the same dedication as a nearby water source .
The church is located in Istanbul, in the district of Fatih, in the neighbourhood of Kocamustafapaşa , on Bestekar Hakkı Sokak. It lies inside the walled city, in an elevated position a short distance from the shore of the Sea of Marmara. The building is protected by a high wall.
The Martyrion is located under the church, on İmrahor İlyasbey Caddesi, and currently houses an iron workshop and a car wash shop. It is in a dilapidated state. Opposite to the Martyrion there is a spring also dedicated to Saint Menas.
