Hermitage of Mikri Analipsi at Prespes
Small, single-aisled church with barrel-vaulted roof, built in a cavity of the rock. The sanctuary is decorated with wall paintings which can be dated to the end of the 14th century. Some of the representations preserved are the Virgin Vlachernitissa, the Melismos with the co-officiating bishops, and the Pentecost. The vault of the sanctuary is covered with a representation of the Ascension of Christ.
Restoration of the monument began in 1994 and is still in progress.
