Church of Saint Sofia

The Church of Saint Sofia was built in the place of an older church, which most probably dates back to the Early Christian Period. Architectural parts of Early Christian, Byzantine and Post-Byzantine Eras were  built in the walls on its facets while in the north side remains of a  baptistery dating back to the 5th century have been found.
