CHURCH OF THE PANAGHIA PARIGORITISSA
One of the most precious Byzantine churches in Greece. Magnificent dome mosaic ( century), frescoes ( century)...
The jewel of Arta, this remarkable church dedicated to the Virgin of Consolation dates from the late 13th century. Cubic in shape, it is topped by a cupola and turrets. Its originality lies in the horizontal columns set into the walls, which support the pendentives of the central vault. These columns were taken from ancient Ambraccian monuments. Inside: magnificent dome mosaic (late 13th century), frescoes (16th century) and icons (18th century).
