Originally a Byzantine monastery complex (around 1418), severely damaged in an earthquake in 1852, partially renovated recently (2022). It also serves as a place of pilgrimage, especially annually on June 13th (Feast of St. Anthony). Late Romanesque/Gothic architecture, approximately 13.5 x 6 meters in size, and fairly well preserved. The path leading there is partly impassable or difficult to access (depending on the season). Frescoes and wall paintings have been preserved inside: for example, a double-headed eagle (associated with the Kastrioti family coat of arms) and a horsewoman figure, interpreted as Mamica Kastrioti (sister of the national hero Skënderbeu). Enjoy your visit!

The Church of the Apostle Paul and Saint Astitus was built between 1994 and 2002 and consecrated on May 3, 2009. The apostle is considered the first Christian preacher in northern Illyria. A church was built in his memory on the edge of Cape Paulus, today Kehis i Pallys. Saint Astitus is the first martyr, martyred in 100 AD in Durres during the reign of Emperor Trajan (98-117).
