The blind arches of Agios Georgios Xifoforos Church, Apodoulou
In Apodoulou there is the Byzantine church of Agios Georgios Xifoforos (Sword-bearing) with an inscription of 1496 and frescoes by Iereas Anastasios. The church is a single room with three blind arches on each side, better to support the church and provide more drawing space. Agios Georgios has been painted on his horse between two blind arches. The best approach to the church is from the north end of the village where there is a sign to the church pointing down (west). The church is 100 metres below.
