Saint Spyridon is the patron saint of Corfu and his remains are house in the church. The church dates from the late 1500s and is in a Venetian style of architecture. The church is ornately decorated, but photos not permitted inside.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
There are 2 entrances to the church. The one from a small square has a large flight of steps to the entrance, see photo. The other entrance is from Saint Spyridonas Street, which only has a couple of steps (sorry no photo). Once inside there is seating. There is a single nave and the church is richly decorated.
Parking & Transport
Excellent
Corfu Town is a short 5 – 10 minutes’ drive by taxi from Corfu Airport. There are buses that serve the town centre and taxis are plentiful and quite reasonably priced.
Accessible Toilets
0I didn't notice any toilets.
Staff
0I didn't have any contact with staff/ volunteers.
Additional Information
It's one of numerous churches in Corfu Town, however it is extra special due to the remains for the island's patron saint's remains being there. It is a popular and busy church. It is well worth visiting.
