Kamena Vourla.
On the E side of Mount Kallidromo, which dominates Kamena
Vourla, lies the monastery of the Metamorphosis of the Soter,
or of Agia. The existing catholicon is a three-aisled basilica with
narthex. The differences in masonry composition attest to the
repairs that the church underwent through the centuries; the
masonry of the first phase, of which the major part survives, is
in the cloisonné system and dates from the 11th-12th c.
