In the middle of beautiful Koronisia, in the arms of Amvrakikos gulf, dominating on the top of the small hill, guard over all, the land and the sea, stands the little church of the Nativity of the Theotokos, a remnant of the old and thriving monastery.

This is one of the oldest churches of Byzantine Arta and dates back to the 10th century. During the Frankokratia and Ottoman Occupation flourished and sheltered many monks.

Later, however, for various reasons it fell into decline and at the end of last century it was abandoned by the monks and it was deserted.

However, the church and the small chapel of St. Onoufrios, at a distance of a few meters to the east of the church, still give testimony to its old glory.

Furthermore, the old well that supplied the monastery with water as well as ruins from the cells and auxiliary areas are still preserved to the south of the church.
