Church of Agios Nikolaos of Psara
The construction of Agios Nikolaos began in 1875 and completed eight years later in 1793 - the year Constantine Kanaris was born. The church was made of marble carried by the locals from Chios, other neighboring islands, and faraway cities like Malta and Marseille. Due to its large size – 28m length x 14m wide x 24m height – it is visible from a long distance and it is the first thing travelers see on their way to Psara. The glorious church in its original form was short lived, as in 1824 it was destroyed and pillaged by the Ottomans stripping it of the valuable assets like icons and chandeliers that had been donated by the local people, but luckily the gospel survived.
Forty years later in 1864, when the locals Psariots returned home, the church was rebuilt and repaired. Originally, it had 67 windows and 8 doors, now only 51 windows and 7 doors still survive. The icon of Agios Nikolaos (St. Nicholas) was painted by Epaminontas Drosinos in Ermoupolis, Syros in 1846 and is decorated with a silver lining from the second half of the 19th century. Five other icons were also painted in Syros in 1888 by Alexandros Gennadios, one by Georgios Varouhas in 1889 and one in 1880, probably in Psara by the local iconographer Georgios N. Marinos. Sitting on the rock of Thymaina, it offers quite spectacular views and it is a great place to watch the sun set behind the small island of Antipsara. To visit the church, you will have to climb 60 stairs, but it is worth the effort.
