Monastary of Vrondisi

Monastary of Vrondisi

Situated between the villages of Vorizia and Zaros the monastery, has a double aisled church, dedicated to the apostle Thomas, and a beautiful fountain with water issuing-forth from lions’ heads. The original monastery dates back to the second Byzantine period (961-1204 AD), though most of what can be seen now, is 16th century. It currently has two monks residing within its walls.
