Monastery Galataki

An historic abbey 7 km distant from Limni, at the foot of Kandilio m´ountain. A byzantin style abbey of the 7th a.c. century on ancient ruins of the temple for Posidon Aegeas, at the place (as it is said) of ancient Evoic Aeges.
The church is of byzantin style with a yard and cells, according to the standards of the churches in Mount Athos with a medieval tower.
Wall paintings of "Paleologic Circle" decorate the lodger as well as the main church (where a significant part has been destroyed) and the vestibule where they are preserved in an excelent condition.
The abbey (wich is used today by nuns), is considered as one of the most ancient and significant ones - not only in Evia - but also throughout the greek territory.
