In the lower part of the village on a dirt road, left (100m) before you cross the bridge at the entrance of the village, there is the Byzantine church of Sotiras Christos with wall paintings by Theodore and Michalis Venieri (1403), many of which, unfortunately, are in poor condition. The artists signed their names on the donor's inscription.
