About this experience

Churches in Magazia is a self-guided tour of the historic churches scattered through the village of Magazia on Paxos island. Visitors walk between the small stone chapels and the central Church of Agios Haralambos, observing local religious architecture and icons. The route takes about one hour and suits travellers interested in Orthodox tradition and island history.

What to expect

Visit the 18th-century Church of Agios Haralambos, the village's main parish church, with its carved wooden iconostasis and frescoed ceiling.
Walk to the smaller chapels of Agios Nikolaos and Agia Triada, each with a single nave and local stonework, typical of Paxiot ecclesiastical buildings.
See the bell towers and exterior courtyards used for village festivals, including the feast day of Agios Haralambos on 10 February.
The self-guided route covers roughly 1.5 kilometres on paved and dirt paths, with gentle slopes, and takes about 60 minutes at a leisurely pace.
Entry to all churches is free, and each building is open during daylight hours, though some chapels may be locked outside service times.
Suitable for adults and older children interested in religious art, local history, or quiet architectural exploration away from the main harbour.
