Mystras, Pantanassa Monastery (1428)
Mystras, Pantanassa Monastery, the katholikon, is the foundation of the protostrator and mesazon John Frangopoulos, a high-ranking functionary of the military and administrative hierarchy in the despotate. The name and position of the donor are mentioned in an inscription in the western gallery, and in monograms carved on the impost of a column of the nave. The date of the church’s construction, 1428, was recorded in a dubious lost inscription that had been read by the abbot Fourmont in 1730.
