Monastery of Agioi Anargyroi, Orthodox monastery in Ermioni, Greece

The Monastery of Agioi Anargyroi stands on a hill near Porto Kapari Gulf, three kilometers from the town of Ermioni in the Peloponnese.

Built in 1340 by John VI Kantakouzenos, the monastery was constructed on the site of ancient healing springs previously dedicated to Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine.

The marble iconostasis inside the church contains a historic image of Agios Anargyros, accompanied by murals from the 16th and 17th centuries of the Cretan School.

The monastery maintains a collection of 1,500 rare books on theology, history, and philosophy, offering resources for researchers and religious scholars.

The monastery houses thermal springs in its courtyard, continuing a tradition of healing that dates back to ancient Greek times through the present day.
