Agia Paraskevi -
Monodendri
The historic monastery of
Agia Paraskevi, built on the edge of the
Vikos Gorge. The monastery was founded in 1412 by Michael
Voevodas Therianos and the people of
Vitsa,
as stated on an inscription, during the reign of
Carlo I Tocco. It was a property of the monastery of St Elias
but was refounded as a nunnery in 1778. The panoramic view from the
monastery is spectacular. |
