Holy Three

Single-spaced, wood-roofed basilica with later additions to the north and south side in the form of open prostheses. When these additions were made, the western side of the temple was repaired. The temple was internally recorded. However, the frescoes were covered with lime, perhaps after the Turkish liberation. Attempts were made to reveal the frescoes by conservationists, with the result that, apart from some figures of the saints, the statuary inscription appeared. The time for the creation of the wall paintings is 1401. The fresco is contemporary with the construction of the temple. The repair of the western side and the modern construction of the open porches bear 19th-century features. During this intervention a partial repair was made on the roof of the temple. The painting is of good quality and offers excellent information about the art of Kastoria in the early 15th century.
