Panagia Kanala, Orthodox church in Kanala, Kithnos Island, Greece

The white stone church of Panagia Kanala stands on the southeastern coast of Kithnos Island, featuring traditional Greek ecclesiastical architecture with blue domed roofs.

The church construction dates to 1869 following the discovery of a religious icon by fishermen in the channel between Kithnos and Serifos islands.

The church holds a sacred icon from the Cretan School of painting and serves as a central religious site for Orthodox celebrations throughout the year.

Visitors can reach the church via paved roads from Kithnos main town, with parking facilities available near the entrance of the religious complex.

The church maintains a collection of maritime offerings from local fishermen who continue the centuries-old tradition of seeking protection at sea.
