Small chapel next to the Agoi Deka Pantekratoras monastery near Corfu radar. Least worthwhile of the three 'attractions' but still offers some amazing views over the Western coast.

This small, isolated, and architecturally inconspicuous building—only the cross on one gable side indicates that it is a place of worship—has a very unusual patronage. The saints entrusted to a church or chapel's protection are almost always biblical figures from the circle of Jesus or later generations. Here, however, we encounter a significant figure from the Old Testament, the Hebrew Bible: the prophet Elijah. His position among the Jewish people is so significant that the Evangelists mention him alongside Moses in their description of the "Transfiguration of the Lord."
