Agios Thomas

Birthplace of the fighter and experienced doctor Logios (1771), the village is situated at an altitude of 530m., Southeast of Santa Barbara with panoramic views of the surrounding area. The residents are beyond the eight hundred. His name first occurs in a document of 1371 as a fief of Petrus de Medio. St. Thomas was named from the old basilica with three naves and a dome in which there are still remnants of murals. The north aisle is dedicated to Saint Nicholas, the center in St. Thomas and south to Saint Charalambos. Among the 40 churches is St. Thomas, as claimed by residents, to visit the Holy Friday, with old murals, and the Church of Archangel Michael in archaic paintings of the 12th century.
