AGIA PARASKEVI (Village) KOURITES
At the south entrance of the village is the church of Agia Paraskevi
and Agios Georgios. It is a two-aisled church but no frescoes are preserved.
In the village of Agia Paraskevi there is the Byzantine church of the Panagia which contains some well-preserved paintings of good artistic quality. One of the frescoes shows the donors of the church, a priest - Georgios Varouhas - and a woman in black. The head of the priest is an exceptional piece of art. The Panagia Church is in the middle of the village before the modern church.
