Monastery of Hosios Loukas
Category : Monasteries Greece
| Hours : 8.0
The
Monastery of Hosios Loukas, one of the finest, 11th century
Byzantine monuments in Greece, is set on a picturesque slope on the western foothills of
Mount Helikon, near the ancient town of
Steiri. The monasteryʼs two large churches (the Church of Panagia and the Katholikon), its Crypt, belfry, monksʼ cells and other buildings, all devoted to the local, miracle-making Hosios, have a unique standing as they are considered paragons among all 11th century monuments in Greece.
