Sights in Tsepelovo

Saint Nikolaos
The hexagon belfry of 16 metres height dominates in the square and it causes the visitor to visit the eminent central church of Saint Nikolaos that it constitutes monument of orthodoxy the church of its royal rythm, it was rebuilt in 1753 and painting by saints in 1786 from the skilful Kapesovites saint painters. There is not exist a part of the surface that would not accept the hand of the saint painters and the rich chromatic variety with the colours unfolded in the 12 belfries, the 16 arcs and in the walls of temple creating compositions, real masterpieces of orthodoxy. Right of the church there is the Tsouflio that is a drugstore and the grave of poet Ioannis Vilaras.
