Corfu Town: Panagia Tenedou (2)
Accordingly to various documents that have been discovered, the church began to be built in 1663 and was completed with in 1749. It is an important , architecturally, church with a dome, double lateral chapels and a bell tower. The dome roofed church of Virgin Mary of Tenedos belongs to the basilica eptanesian one-aisle type which presents particular historical interest as it accommodated in 1798 the first printing-house of Greece, and in 1800, the island's first public library. Moreover in 1805, the first Greek faculty of public education with director Ioannis Kapodistrias was founded and placed in the temple.
An exterior element, which impresses but also, characterizes the particular church, is the Venetian sculptured lion in the central entrance and the inscription Sub Ubra Alarum Tuatum Protege nos MDCCXII. On either side there is the emblem of the Donas family (right) and the emblem of the Franciscan Monks (left).
In the interior of the temple there is a stone chancel screen, which was made in 1603. It was transported from the other temple of Virgin Mary that is found in the Old Fortress. Other than the icon of Virgin Mary of Tenedos or Carmelo, there are other icons in the temple such as of Saint Nikolaos, Saint Andreas, Hyperagia Theotokos (Virgin Mary) and of Saint Fragiskos and Saint Spyridonas.

Dji phantom 4,Symi Port,Symi
Flight over Symi Port with my Drone.Symi island of the Dodecanese, Greece, is situated in southeast Aegean sea and northwest of Rhodes. While touring around the island you will see many churches and monasteries devoted to the Archangel Michael. The Greek Orthodox Monastery of Taxiarchis Mihail Panormitis is the most important on the island and second largest in the Dodecanese after the monastery of St John the Theologian in Patmos.
The monastery is located on the south end of Symi, situated on the seafront of the tiny village of Panormitis. It is a closed-in cove with a small sandy beach, protected by a narrow inlet that opens out into a wide harbour. The mountainous backdrop is covered with pine trees which give the area an ambiance of solitude.
The monastery is a large 18th-century Venetian-styled building with the highest baroque bell tower in the world. The facade of the main structure is white and it stretches along the coast on either side of the main gateway. In excellent condition, the Italians constructed these two rows of buildings after World War II. These buildings now contain holiday flats that can be rented by tourists visiting the monastery and also contain a bakery among other things.
Once inside the monastery main gate, visitors are welcomed by an inner courtyard decorated with exotic trees and plants and paved with 'hokhlakia'. The church dedicated to the Panormiti is on the left and inside contains the two-metre-high, silver-leafed wall icon of the Panormiti. The entire church interior is covered with iconography (of particular interest is the 'fall of the angels' mural at the back of the church) and is decorated with very elaborate chandeliers.
Monastery of Arch. Michael Panormitis (Symi, Greece)
The exact historical date of the construction of this church remains unknown but some suggest that it was built around 450 AD over the site of an ancient temple dedicated to the pagan god Apollo. It is known for certainty that the existing church underwent a major renovation in the 18th century to bring it to the standard that is in existence today.
The monastery has two museums. One houses ecclesiastical art, and is rich in exhibits like pontificals, silver icons, Russian epitaphs, and ecclesiastical utensils, ship model offerings brought to Panormitis from far away by the sea, and one of folk art with important objects of the folk culture of the island relevant to fishing, agriculture, and shepherding. There is also a library with Byzantine manuscripts and editions of ecclesiastical, historical, and philological content, as well as a gallery with paintings of the landscape of the monastery and its two chapels. There is also a memorial to a former abbot, two monks, and two teachers, who in 1944 were executed for running a spy radio for the British commandos.
The monastery receives heaps of day-trippers from Rhodes, so if you really want to enjoy it in peace and quiet, it is best to wait until they have gone. The monastery's dorm-house can host up to 500 people. The only way to get to the monastery is via a ferry or excursion boat. If you are already on the island, there is a road that exists between the monastery and the town of Symi. This can take over six hours to walk or an hour using a local bus service or rented scooter. In Greek mythology, Symi is reputed to be the birthplace of the Charites and to take its name from the nymph Syme (in antiquity the island was known as Aigli and Metapontis), though Pliny the Elder and some later writers claimed that the name was derived from scimmia a monkey. In Homer's Iliad the island is mentioned as the domain of King Nireus, who fought in the Trojan War on the side of the Greeks. Thucydides writes that during the Peloponnesian War there was a Battle of Syme near the island in January, 411 BC, in which an unspecified number of Spartan ships defeated a squadron of Athenian vessels. Little was known about the island until the 14th century, but archaeological evidence indicates that it was continuously inhabited, and ruins of citadels suggest that it was an important location. It was first part of the Roman Empire and then the Byzantine Empire,[7] until its conquest by the Knights of St. John in 1373
