The cave church Ágios Antónios was originally inhabited by a hermit. There are very different opinions about age.
If you want to explore the cave a little closer, it is recommended to bring a flashlight.

For us a must on every Samos vacation. This chapel is hidden in a stalactite cave. Due to the minerals that are contained in the stalactites, they glitter when they are illuminated. As of this year, the cave is automatically illuminated when you walk into it. A flashlight is still worthwhile, otherwise you won't see the glitter. One of the most worthwhile trips.

You should definitely follow the sign. There are several cave churches on Samos but this one is really spectacular
