Pantanassa monastery (Panagia Pantanassa) is a relatively new female monastery dedicated to the Nativity of Mary (celebr. on September 8).
Pantanassa was initially founded to carry out charity work, like the monastery of Kalyviani near Mires. However, its founder, Bishop Nikolaos Xenos, died and he did not manage to fulfil his grandiose dreams and fond orphanage, nursing home, kindergarten, nursery, etc.
