Ιερά Μονή Ζωοδόχου Πηγής Άριας - Αγία Μονή

About this audio guide

This guide to Agia Moni, the convent of the Life-Giving Source just outside Nafplio, starts with a story the people of Argos told the second-century traveller Pausanias about a spring and the goddess Hera. It moves on to Leo, the twelfth-century bishop who paid for the church, and to the craftsmen whose brick and ceramic work still covers its walls. Best heard standing between the spring-fed pond and the church porch.
