Saint George of Aipeia

The church of Agios Georgios is a cross-roofed building, without a narthex, with a three-sided external apse on the east. The masonry of the monument follows the brick-enclosed building system and is decorated with a toothed strip on the upper part of the walls. In the tympanums of the transverse cross-shaped antenna, two impressive, Gothic-style, two-lobed windows open which, in combination with the abundance of built-in clay tablets and other construction elements, place the church among the so-called Frankish-Byzantine monuments and lead to its dating to the second half of the 13th century.

In the tympanum of the western wall, above the main entrance, the representation of the eponymous saint, from post-Byzantine times, is preserved. The limestone floor slabs were placed in the late 19th century. The carved wooden iconostasis and the despotic icons date from the same period.

Inside the monument, fragments of frescoes dating back to the late 13th century are preserved. Later frescoes (1903) cover the space of the apse. At the same time, some of the faces of the 13th century frescoes were repainted.
