Chapels in Karpathos

There are hundreds of chapels in Karpathos island. You can find these chapels in many places - in villages, on the slopes of the surrounding hills, in the valleys, and also on the top of the highest mountains. Many of them are several hundred years old, and many still house byzantine frescoes. Some chapels are open to public, but some are kept locked and you will have to hunt for the key in the nearest village. The sacred chapels reflect the religious character of Karpathos through the ages.
