Kato Preveli Monastery
Κάτω Μονή Πρέβελη
The stone ruins of the old Preveli Monastery near the mouth of the gorge, beside a Venetian-era stone arch bridge.
Kato Preveli is the old site of Preveli Monastery in the river valley. It was repeatedly destroyed during the Ottoman period, and now only stone walls, arches and courtyard ruins remain. It has not been fully restored, but visitors may walk in freely. The road to the upper Preveli Monastery passes nearby, and close by is a Venetian-era stone arch bridge across the Megalopotamos River, where you can stop to take photos. Entry is free, and about 20 minutes is enough to see it.
