This stunning church is located in Samarina, built since 1812. It is dedicated to Our Lady and every year on the 15th of August there is a great celebration in the village, which brings together visitors from all over the country.
Once upon a time a small pine sprouted in the church and now it beautifully comes out of the roof! The tree is over 100 years old.
