The
church of Aghios Nikolaos (St. Nicholas) is located atop a small
hill and affords a breathtaking view of the port and the village of Psara.
Construction began in 1785 and was completed in 1793. During
the Massacre of Chios, the church was bombarded, however, it was later
reconstructed in 1863. It was
from this point that Constantine Kanaris began his attack on the Turkish
flagship. |
