Description:

A three-aisled basilica with a wooden roof with a porch and a chapel of All Saints to the north of the church. The main part of the church was built in 1831 on the location of an older one, as it maintains the wood engraved icon screen from 1663. The main church was painted with holy icons in 1845 and the narthex in 1852. A bell tower from 1896 is salvaged to the north-east of the church.

 

Special characteristics

 

It is important due to the paintings of the Chionadite painter Michail Zikos and his company.
