Panagia Trypiti

Panagia Trypiti is a historic sacred shrine of Theotokos in the town of Aigio, Greece. It is one of the most important Orthodox shrines of pilgrimage in Greece. The shrine is dedicated to the Mother of God of the Life-giving Spring. It is built on a steep cliff almost 30 meters high, near to sea.

The church was built on the site where the grace-filled Icon of Panagia was miraculously discovered in the middle of the sixteenth century by a voyager who was ship-wrecked off the shores of the Corinthian Gulf. Later in the 19th century it was expanded and took the form that it has today.
