The spiritual heart of Corfu, constructed in the 1580s in an elegant Venetian-Ionian style within Old Corfu Town. The church enshrines the relics of Saint Spyridon, the island's beloved patron saint. Its soaring bell tower with a red dome is the tallest landmark in town, while the interior dazzles with an ornate gilded ceiling painted by Panagiotis Doxaras and the magnificent silver reliquary housing the saint's casket.
