Southeast of Filiatra, hidden among olive trees, lies this small, cross-shaped Byzantine church from the 13th century.
The church is dedicated to the Ascension of the Savior (Analipsi) and is the oldest of its kind in Greece.
If you are in the area during the Ascension festival, you should not miss the opportunity to visit the temple, as it is usually closed on other days. Through the south window, you can photograph and look at the remains of the frescoes.
