    In 1794, monks settled in the monastery, so-called Kollyvades, who had emigrated from the monastic colony on Mount Athos after there had been conflicts over forms of worship. They were led by Nifon of Chios. One of the monks was Grigorios Chatzistamatis, who had inherited land on Skiathos from his father.

    In 1807, a group of Greek freedom fighters met in the monastery and took an oath of freedom on the newly designed flag of Greece, at that time the white cross on a sky-blue background, which had been woven in the monastery.
