Moni Zoodochos Pigi
Moni Zoodochos Pigi, Orthodox monastery in Sikinos, Greece
The Moni Zoodochos Pigi monastery features white-washed walls, Byzantine architectural elements, and panoramic views of the Aegean Sea from its elevated position.
Constructed as a spiritual center on Sikinos island, the monastery received official protection status as both a Greek archaeological site and heritage building.
Orthodox Christian traditions continue at the monastery through religious ceremonies, while local festivals bring together residents and pilgrims throughout the year.
Visitors can reach the monastery via a 15-minute walk up stone steps from Sikinos town or by car following signs to Agios Georgios beach.
The monastery underwent renovations in 2015, transforming from an abandoned structure into an active women's religious community that welcomes guests daily.
