Greece Patmos: Monasteries: Church of Agios Ioannis Theologos

Five kilometres southwest of the Island’s capital in Grikos is the small church of Agios Ioannis Theologos. This church is said to have been older than the Island’s monastery on top of Hora. It is also distinguished as a place of extreme historical importance as it is built upon ancient spas where, as per tradition, is where St. John baptised early Christian inhabitants and performed various miracles.
