Agia Irini Church Ios
The church of Agia Irini is a Greek Orthodox church on the island of Ios. The quaint church, located in the south side of the port, was built in the 17th century. The whitewashed church has two bell towers. One over the entrance in the church and another one over the gate, with seven and three bells respectively. This beautiful little church is the first sight you will see as the ferry enters the port of Ios. To reach the church, follow the road along the sea. It is a lovely spot to watch ferries come and go and to take some great pictures. Very close to the church, under a tree lies a mysterious 17th-18th century grave with engraved square and compasses symbol and a skull and bones symbol. It is not known to who it belongs to, but it is assumed that it is of a pirate.
