Emialon Monastery is small; it was founded in the late 16th - early 17th century by monk Grigorios’s brother and sister, as well as nun Efpraksia Kondoyani. Because of the caves and ruins of an older temple further up, it is believed that ascetics lived here even before the establishment of the monastery. The name probably comes from Emialos that sounds almost like "omalos" and the monastery was also known as Omalon or Omialon. It played a crucial role in preserving the Greek language and traditions during the Ottoman rule. Six warriors of Kolokotronis died here when Turks laid an ambush, and Theodoros Kolokotronis himself escaped. When in 1834 many monasteries were destroyed, this one accommodated 18 monks.
In the 19th century, it declined and lost all its property except for a famous vineyard. Now, it is a convent of the Monastery of Prodromos and accepts visitors. Its 17th century mural paintings are very impressive – they were painted by famous painters Dimitrios and George Moshos. Monks will treat you with Turkish delight and ice-cold spring water. The view from the small wooden balcony and tranquillity that reigns here will soothe even the most troubled soul. ggreporter
