Tips
The church of Saints Elias and Enoch, located on the mesa of Monte Santo, dates back to the Byzantine era (6th-9th century AD) and reflects the traditions of Greek monasticism. Originally, it was a place of worship for hermit monks who lived in cells dug into the mountain. In 1065, the church became the first Benedictine monastery on the island.
