The frescoes in the church are simply fantastic, sometimes even creepy. All the tortures are depicted comically here... A nun unlocks the church and then watches to make sure you don't take photos, but there is a virtual tour online (at least through the Katholikon): epirusforallseasons.gr/de/attractions/religion-de/kloster-der-philanthropinen-auf-der-insel-von-ioannina
