Location: Pigadia

On the suburbs of Pigadia, overlooking the eastern coast of the island, lie the ruins of Agia Fotini. This Paleochristian basilica dates around the 5th and 6th centuries AD and is one of the most historically significant sites in the area.

Visitors will be able to see a collection of doric columns made of marble and the frames of the once-thriving religious center. Some interesting religious symbols and decorations can also be observed, in addition to a few carvings. The advantageous location of the site provides a beautiful view of the sea in a serene and quiet environment. The chapel is lit up at night, creating a uniquely enchanting atmosphere amidst the natural landscape.

If you wish to visit this historic monument you can easily do so by following the main road from Pigadia to Aperi. After a few minutes, you will spot the Chapel of Agia Fotini on your right-hand side.
