Monastery of Seltsos

The Monastery of Seltsos stands in the Arta region of northwestern Greece, in the Municipality of Georgios Karaiskakis, where it was built in 1697. Its founding belongs to the later Byzantine era, when monastic communities across the region continued to flourish despite external pressures. Today the monastery is recognized as a protected building in Greece, a designation that reflects its historical and cultural importance to the area. For the traveler, it offers a quiet encounter with the enduring monastic tradition of Epirus and the layered religious heritage of Arta.
