The Sacred Church of Agia Marina in Ligourio

The church is located around 300m to the west of Ligourio at the entrance to the village. It is in the simple four-columned cross-in square type, which used columns and capitals taken from ancient buildings in the area, a practice that is encountered in many churches in Ligourio and the wider area. The outer walls of the church are built with roughly worked stones, while at other points, such as the dome, they are more carefully worked and follow the pseudo-isodomic system. According to the founding inscription of the church, which is found on its built-in iconostasis, above the entrance to the altar, the church was built in 1713, during the bishopric of Damalon and Iakovos Pediados, as was its wall painting, which was never finished, most likely because the Ottomans retook the area in 1715.
