The Church of the Parigoritissa is a 13th-century Byzantine metropolitan church located in Arta, Greece, constructed in 1201 from brick and stone. Rising to a height of 20.28 meters, this example of Byzantine architecture served as a significant religious center for the city. The church's name derives from its dedication to the Panagia of Consolation. In later years, part of the building was adapted to house the Archaeological Collection of Arta, reflecting its enduring cultural importance. Today it stands as a protected archaeological site in Greece.
