Founder also called Euthymius the Thesssalonian or "the New." He was born in Galatia, and went to Mount Olympus in Bithynia circa 848. Sometime later he moved to Mt. Athos, Greece, where he gained a reputation as a preacher. He founded a monastery in Salonika, lived for some months in a tower, and then returned to Athos. There he built a monastery and founded another one. A few months before his death, Euthymius went to a solitary retreat, where he died on October 15 .
