Virgin of Aghio Galas

View on Aghio GalasAt the entrance of a natural cave is the Panaghia Aghiogalousena (The Virgin of the Holy Milk), which once contained a wealth of frescoes. However , today only the scene of the Platitera inside the sanctuary is preserved. Also important is its woodcarved iconostas. The architectural decorations probably place it in the 13th or 14th century.
Post-Byzantine in style are also the churches of the Dormition, the Virgin Mary, the Taxiarchi, the Ypapanti and St. Paraskevi in Pyrgi.
