Churches

ABOUT

In the picturesque village of Maza, in the Municipality of Apokoronas, visitors can marvel at the single-aisled and vaulted Church of Agios Nikolaos.

The church is adorned with depictions of saints and scenes from the evangelical cycle and the life of St Nicholas, attributed to John Pagomenos.

In fact, tradition dictates that the tomb of this renowned painter is located inside the church.

Additionally, an existing inscription from 1324 specifically lists the names of the church devotees.
