Perched on a steep cliff 30 m above the beach of Aigio and in the hole of Spileo is built the magnificent church of Panagia Tripiti, patron saint of Aigio. A renaissance-type, exterior marble staircase of 150 stairs, built in 1870 on the design of Angelos Korizis, unites the Holy Pilgrimage with the coastal public road.

At the point where he saw the glow he later found the icon of the Virgin Mary, wedged on the rocks. Then he decided to practice in a small cave inside the rock that still exists today. Over ti
