PEDINO, Village, LEMNOS (LIMNOS)

  Pedino or Pisperago as it was earlier named is refered to on a golden bull document in 1393 in which the possessions of Pantokratoros Monastery are described. This was one of the villages of Limnos which owned sailing vessels during the last century. It was destroyed by the earthquakes in 1968 and transferred to the region of Nea Koutali. However many of the houses of the village, most of them with beautiful gardens, have been rebuilt and are inhabited.
