Dating from 1028, this church was restored in 1934. Note the inscription above the western entrance: "This place, hitherto profane, is dedicated especially to the worship of the Mother of God by Christophoros (...) in the year 6537." 6537 corresponds to a calendar starting from the supposed creation of the world and actually reveals the year 1028 of the Christian era. A protospathos is a high dignitary. Christophoros dedicated the church to the Virgin in remission of his sins.
