Nestling in the mountains surrounding Paleochora is the tiny village of Azogires. It is here, tucked away at the foot of the village boundaries, that you will find the small and beautiful Monastery of the 99 Holy Fathers.
Nestling in the mountains surrounding Paleochora is the tiny village of Azogires. It is here, tucked away at the foot of the village boundaries, that you will find the small and beautiful Monastery of the 99 Holy Fathers. The Monastery is no longer in use by the Fathers, but is now a museum and the calm serenity that surrounds the site makes the perfect environment for artists to sit & create wonderful work, helped by the amazing light & tones of shade found at this high altitude.
The story surrounding Holy Fathers Church is as inspiring as the time-worn icons inside. Saint John the Hermit was the leader of 98 Holy Fathers, but somehow they traveled to Azogires, without their saintly leader.
He got left behind for a time on deserted Gavdos Island. The Holy Fathers attributed their collective prayers to the return of their beloved John in 1300 CE. But being a hermit, he opted for his own cave and his followers for theirs. They settled for prayer inside the monastery.

Once upon a time there was a big village! Strati is called this village in Selino, a settlement of the former community of Temeni. Nature around is rich and there are a lot of flowing waters in “Retzaka”, a beautiful little waterfall, which, in the distant past, was a place of service where the water moved the millstones of the mill, grinding tones of grains. The village is named so, probably by the familiar name Stratos and it is built at an altitude of 650 m. It is reported in the province Selino in 1577, while in the census of 1881 it was written as Stratoi and it belongs to Paleochora municipality with 4 Christians and 75 Turks. In 1900 it was referred as Stratou and Achladiakes of the same municipality with 48 residents.
In1920 belongs to the rural municipality Azogire with 107 residents, in 1928 it was written as Strati of Paleochora community with 113 residents, in 1940 it was written as Stratoi with 147 residents, in 1951 with 109 residents, in 1961 with 114 residents and in 1971 only 92 residents.
