Church of Panagia Iamatiki

The Church of Panagia Iamatiki is situated on the outskirts of the village of Arakapas, and is a three-aisled wooden-roofed church. The church contains sophisticated wall paintings of the early 16th century that are among the most important surviving examples of the Italo-Byzantine style of art on the island.

An extraordinary leather icon of the Virgin (in the nearby new church) is believed to have special curative powers.
