In a region of almost inaccessible sandstone peaks, monks settled on
these 'columns of the sky' from the 11th century onwards. Twenty-four of
these monasteries were built, despite incredible difficulties, at the
time of the great revival of the eremetic ideal in the 15th century.
Their 16th-century frescoes mark a key stage in the development of
post-Byzantine painting.
