This pretty pink church was built in 1685 to replace an earlier wooden version. It comprises a cube building decorated with columns and topped with five small blue domes on high tholobates. Attached to this is a four-tier octagonal bell tower. The church was closed in the 1920s and used as a warehouse and a cinema; its domes being removed in the process. In 2004 it was returned to the Orthodox Church and re-consecrated after restoration work in 2009.
