Greek monastery survives over 1000 years: monks recount robbery

Just 4 km from the resort town of Kamena Vourla lies the Metamorfosis tou Sotiros monastery, one of the oldest communities in Greece, dating back over 1000 years. Father Nikitas recounts the monastery's history, including a robbery in which — according to the monks' account — something prevented the robbers from escaping by sea. The site attracts pilgrims and tourists interested in Greek religious history.
