In the village of Agia Paraskevi there is the Byzantine church of the Panagia which contains some well-preserved paintings of good artistic quality. One of the frescoes shows the donors of the church, a priest - Georgios Varouhas - and a woman in black. The head of the priest is an exceptional piece of art. The Panagia Church is in the middle of the village before the modern church.
