Limnos island has unique beauties and many sites to visit.
One of them is the unique chapel of Panagia Kakaviotissa. It is the only chapel in Greece and perhaps in the whole world that has no roof, but it is protected by a rock above it.
Located inside a rock cavity on the top of Kakavos Mountain at an altitude of 260 meters, it offers an impressive view to the sea and the mountainside of Lemnos.
It is close to the Zemata village and was founded in 1,416 A.C. by some monks who managed to escape the Turkish invasion in Agios Efstratios island.
