Panagia Vlacherna Monastery

master

Panagia Vlacherna Monastery is well worth the visit. The exact date when the monastery was founded remains unconfirmed. However, various historical sources put its founding somewhere in the 13th century AD. The monastery is home to the relics of various saints and its library contains displays of various historical documents and Patriarchal manuscripts. Today the monastery is an important charitable organisation providing accommodation for many elderly people in its Old People’s Home.

The feast day of the monastery is 8 September each year when religious ceremonies are accompanied by a celebratory party.

Panagia Katholiki Church

master

The Byzantine Church of Panagia Katholiki at Gastouni is a two-columned inscribed cruciform church dating from the 12th century. It has a semi-hexagonal apse, dome with eight-sided drum and a narthex at the west side.  The walls, with panels of reticulate tiling and double layers of tiles at the joins, are embellished with a plain ceramic decoration, especially dentil courses, and with embedded glazed bowls.  The unique Frankish influence of the 14th century is seen in the pointed arch of the north doorway, now blocked. The later addition of an exonarthex (outer porch) and large doorway openings are the only few changes that have been made to the original form of the building.  Two layers of wall paintings are preserved on the interior.  The second layer is dated by an inscription to the year 1702 and was made with funds contributed by Ioannikios the bishop of Olene. A second inscription of the same period referring to the donors of the church and giving the date of building as 1279, refers in all likelihood to the earlier donors' inscription.

A truly exotic location with a vast sandy beach extending for 3km. The crystal clean waters of the Ionian invite you to enjoy them. It is awarded with the Blue flag every year and it is organized with a small refreshment bar.
