Panagia Trypiti, Orthodox church in Aigio, Greece
The Panagia Trypiti church stands on a steep cliff rising 30 meters above sea level near the port of Aigio in Peloponnese.
During the mid-sixteenth century, a shipwrecked voyager discovered an icon in a rock cave, leading to the construction of this religious site.
The church celebrates its main festival on Easter Friday with a procession through Aigio's streets, drawing thousands of Orthodox pilgrims from across Greece.
Visitors reach the church through a renaissance-style marble staircase with 150 steps, leading from the public road to the entrance.
A marble fountain adorned with three angel figures dispenses holy water in the narthex, featuring an engraved palindrome about washing transgressions.
