The church of Saint George (Agios Georgios) is located in the village Kouneni (current formal name of the village is Vathi ) and belongs to the architectural type of the single-nave arched roofed temple. The side antennas are adorned with blind arches, while the semicircular arch has been collapsed and rebuilt.
A tooth strap surrounds the exterior walls of the arch of the sanctuary. Inside the church bears fresco decoration of 1284 painted by a folklore hagiographer following the tradition of the 12th century.
