Church of the Holy Virgin of Lamia, Kefalonia.


The Church of the Holy Virgin of Lamia lies within the walls of the Monastery of the Holy Virgin at Lamia on the outskirts of Dilinata and possesses a fine, silver embossed icon of the Holy Virgin that is considered miraculous. On September 12th a procession of the icon takes place through the village and a vigil is held at the church of St. John the Baptist, where one can admire the wood-carved iconostasis with 18th century icons and frescoes inside the Holy Altar dated back to the 16th century.
