The largest and oldest monastery of Meteora, The Monastery of Great Meteoron is also the highest, with more than 615 meters. Founded by Saint Athanasius, whose disciples were exiled royal heads, Meteoron was always considered the most prestigious. The huge complex includes the 14th century nunnery, a small museum, a wine cellar and a shaded courtyard. For many visitors, a memorable image is the one in the sacristy, where the skulls of those who lived in the monastery are placed.
