Mother Church of the Annunciation

The mother church of the Annunciation was built in 1878 on the foundations of an earlier one dating from the 16th century. The population growth registered in the country forced the mayor and the parish priest of the time to demolish the old structure and build a wider new one. From historical sources we know that the ancient structure included five altars and a baptismal font according to the greek rite. Today there are only the inscriptions on the front of the main door and the door of the choir, both bearing the date 1575.
