Mistra - Pantanassa Convent

Returning to the Monemvasía Gate and keeping straight ahead, we come to the Pantánassa convent (dedicated to the Mother of God as "Mistress of All"), occupied by a few nuns - the only monastic house in Mistra which is still occupied. The Pantánassa church, the last major building to be erected in Mistra (1428), contains notable paintings.
The architecture of the convent is similar to that of the Vrontocheion Monastery, but its proportions are more refined.
