| About these ratings | ||
This church is named for the patron saint of Corfu, St. Spyridon, who is said to have saved the island on more than one occasion. In fact, a large segment of the male population in Corfu is named "Spyros" in his honor. His remains lie in a silver coffin within the church. Be sure to snap pictures of the building's interesting bell tower and beautiful red dome.
The church is located in the Old Town. Admission is free, but visits during services are discouraged.
