Paleokastritsa Monastery

An active monastery on Paleokastritsa’s headland, with a historic church, icon collection and coastal setting. Check access before planning an interior visit.

Paleokastritsa Monastery

Why go

The diocese records an active religious community and a museum of post-Byzantine icons, vestments and sacred objects. Its location above Agios Spyridon Bay gives the visit a distinct cultural focus from swimming below. Spend time with the church and grounds if open, and treat museum access as something to confirm rather than assume.

What to look for

  • Paleokastritsa Monastery stands above the central bay.
  • The monastery holds post-Byzantine icons and religious objects; confirm visitor access.

Useful to know

  • Confirm current visitor hours and museum access with the monastery before setting out.
  • Approach from Paleokastritsa; the monastery stands on the headland above Agios Spyridon Beach.
