Hagiography in oil and gold leaf on wood

Saint Leonidas was the Bishop of Athens and a martyr of the church, whose memory is honored by our Church on April 15.

She lived in the third century and was martyred along with seven other women (Harissa, Nike, Galini, Callida, Nunechia, Vasilissa, Theodora).

Originally from the area of Troizina, he operated in the area of Epidaurus. He developed a close spiritual bond with seven women, a bond that we do not know exactly when it began, however, some evidence that exists testifies to this sacred relationship. In 1833 the then vicar of the community, priest Nikolaos Natsoulis, built a church in honor and glory of Saint Leonidas.

In Athens there is an early Christian church (crypt) in the name of Agios Leonides behind the pillars of Olympian Zeus.
