The church is dedicated to Saint Paraskevi and is private. It is domed, imitates Byzantine architecture and was built on the site of an older, destroyed church, dedicated to the same saint.
It was designed by Emmanuel Boukis and the church belongs to his descendants to this day. The hagiographies are by Dimitrios Pelekasis. In 2024, photos with “for sale” signs on the church were posted on social media and many thought it was for sale. In fact, the two small houses within the plot were for sale, not the church.
