Die Geschichte

Within Markopoulo’s cemetery, this older church of the Virgin preserves an intimate part of the town’s history. Its vaulted interior contains eighteenth-century paintings, some altered by later repainting. Here, religious heritage remains closely connected to remembrance and family life. Treat the setting as an active cemetery, and keep your visit quiet and respectful of anyone who has come to mourn.
