The Holy Church of the Evangelistria of Nafplion was visited by the Deputy Minister of Finance, Mr. Dimitrios Markopoulos, as well as the Deputy Minister of Rural Development and Food, Mr. Yiannis Andrianos, on Saturday, July 25, 2026. During their visit they were guided to the Holy Church of Evangelistria Nafplio, the Ecclesiastical Museum, the Folklore Museum, the area dedicated to Agios Paisios, as well as the rest of the Holy Pilgrimage areas. Of particular interest was their visit to the conservation laboratory, where specialized conservators of the Ministry of Culture work with dedication to preserve the sacred icons of the Ecclesiastical Museum.

This important project is being implemented at the expense of the Ministry of Culture, following the decision of the Minister of Culture, Mrs. Lina Mendoni, essentially contributing to the preservation and promotion of our ecclesiastical and cultural heritage.

It's good to see the ministers taking time to visit the restoration workshop. Those icon conservators from the Ministry of Culture do such careful, patient work—I've always admired how they bring old icons back without losing their spirit. Nice that the funding came through from Minister Mendoni.

Хорошо, что министры заглянули и в мастерскую реставрации. Интересно, сколько икон уже удалось привести в порядок в этом музее. У нас в церкви тоже одна старая икона после такой работы совсем по-другому засияла.

I remember stopping by the Evangelistria church in Nafplio a few years back on a fishing trip down the coast. Nice to see the ministers actually went into the conservation workshop instead of just posing for photos. Those restorers from the Ministry of Culture have their hands full with all those old icons.
