Moni Stomiou walk in Konitsa, Greece

Описание: In one of the most impressive locations in our country, in the Aoos ravine, between the steep slopes of Tymfi (alt. 2497 m) and Trapezitsa (alt. 2024 m) is the Monastery of Panagia Stomiou.

The original location of the monastery, founded in 1442, is on the opposite slopes of Trapezitsa, where the name “Paliomonastiro” survives. It was moved to its current location, on an elevated rise of the lower elevations of the slopes of Tymfi, by the abbot Konstantinos, in 1774. From the almost complete destruction of the Monastery by the German army in 1943, only the church was saved.

Saint Paisios lived there for four years, you can read more here (Greek) https://www.romfea.gr/diafora/38087-i...

The Monastery of Stomiou is today an active male monastery. It has 11 newly built cells with auxiliary rooms and a small cruciform catholicon with a dome. Of interest is the iconostasis with several Byzantine icons and the relics of many saints, which were transferred to the monastery from the Paleomonastiro. The monastery can only be visited by hiking for 1-1.5 hours from the Konitsa bridge.
