The Old Church of St Marina is located in the south
of the village. It was built in the 12 th century and
retains a domed roof and a narthex (porch) that was
added later on.
Several half worn-out frescoes are preserved in its dome. It is to this mediaeval church that community's new church owes its name.

The old Agia
Marina
Church (Saint Marina) |
Today the church of Agia Marina is being repaired,
the expenses paid by the Antiquities Department, the
Local Land Authority of Pyrga, and donations by the
"Leventio Paraskevaidio" centre and other
faithful.
In the church's rear side stands the village's first spring,
through which the entire village was supplied with water
in old times. In 1951 some water-supply projects were
and the village's water supply was made easier by a second
spring.
