KALAMOTI & CHIOS · RELIGIOUS HERITAGE

Churches, memory and the life around them.

Begin among Kalamoti’s houses, then look towards the countryside. Each church offers a different way into the village’s story: a dedication, a family memory, an architectural detail.

The guide distinguishes archival evidence, recorded recollections and practical visiting suggestions. An old date may refer to ownership or restoration; it does not always date the building.

Look at the evidence.
