It is a chapel with a modest iconostasis, which is built next to a small cave. The chapel was built in 1940 and was dedicated to Agia Kononi, who according to Kleanthis I. Vakis, does not historically exist, but according to church tradition, constitutes an alteration of Agios Kononas. However, mass is conducted in the church and the loyal Christians have not stopped coming with devoutness, either to worship the saint or hang small pieces of clothing, this way continuing an old custom.
Holy water with therapeutic properties, which are believed to be derived from the mud of the holy water, flows near the chapel.
