Panagia Kassopitra is a medieval church dedicated to the patron saint of sailors.
The church stands on the site of an old temple dedicated to Zeus. The site was already a popular pilgrimage destination prior to the Christianisation of the island. Hundreds of pilgrims still arrive every year at the church which celebrates its most important day on the 15th August.
