A 13th century monastery overlooking Lourdas bay, the Virgin Mary at Sissia is believed to have been founded by St. Francis of Assisi as a Catholic monastic establishment, only to be converted to the Orthodox denomination years later. Among the treasures belonging to the monastery is a 17th century icon by Stefanos Tsangarolas of the Virgin Mary, now exhibited at the Ecclesiastic Museum of St. Andrew.
