Church of Christ the Savior

The church stands on the outskirts of Temenia, surrounded by old trees. The structure is two-phased: the older part — 13th-century, single-nave, barrel-vaulted with blind arches — forms the main body. In the 14th century an independent narthex in the form of a single-nave domed church was added to the west. A small western bell tower. The state of preservation of the frescoes is poor — Lassithiotakis records simply: "heavily damaged" (πολύ κατεστραμμένες). Of the fragmentarily surviving iconographic programme, the following are visible: in the apse, remnants of a Pantokrator surrounded by figures; in the register of hierarchs, two bishops in polystavrion omophoria — the chequerboard cross pattern characteristic of late Byzantine episcopal vestments — identified as Nicholas and Basil; in a blind arch of the lateral wall, a mounted military saint on a white horse; fragments of narrative scenes on the vault, including a battle scene with horsemen. The dating of the frescoes has not been established in the scholarly literature. The church is active.
