Agios Georgios( St.George) of Florina

In 1835, the Church of Agios Georgios was built. According to Georgios Modis, the church was built without a Sultan’s firman, but thanks to a “good” Albanian Pasha who gave permission.
According to popular tradition, the church was built within 35 days
It is a three-aisled timber-roofed basilica, with a narthex and a remarkable carved wooden iconostasis.
In 1911 it was decided to buy a field opposite the existing church of Agios Georgios, for the organization of the cemeteries.
In 1921, the bell tower was built by the expert Dimitrios Toussis.
In the courtyard of the church there was also a guest house, where the monks, the nuns and the candlestick makers lived, a candle workshop and a large fountain in the courtyard for holy water,
In this church, the first official praise for the liberties of the city was held on November 8, 2012, in the presence of the Crown Prince Constantine and presided over by Metropolitan Polycarp, a tradition that continues to this day on the anniversary of the city’s liberation.
The portable icons of the iconostasis are old. The frescoes of the church were painted in the 1980s by the hagiographer Nikolaos Zographos from Drosopigi. The columns of the front door of the courtyard area were made of Vevi limestone in 1938 by the stonecutter Nikolaos Stathopoulos from Drosopigi.
The church was reconstructed in the period 1948 – 1950.
