The monument is located about 2 km south of the village of Agios Georgios, on a hill that dominates the right bank of the river Evinos. It is still in use today and functions as the cemetery church of the village. In the surrounding courtyard there are marble and granite columns without grooves. It is a basilica that was part of a larger Christian complex, with other annexes that were found in 1979 to its southwest and northwest.
The original building belongs to the Early Byzantine period and was a three-aisled timber-roofed basilica, which must have been in a ruined state between the second half of the 6th and the 8th centuries. Part of the masonry of the semi-cylindrical apse with two lateral radial buttresses has been preserved from this phase, while the lower parts of the masonry of the side walls can still be seen in the eastern walls of the church, as also the lower parts of the masonry of the side walls. In the apse there are three single-pane windows with brick arched lintels, surrounded by a denticulated band.
In the Middle Byzantine period (late 9th or 10th to 11th centuries) the building was significantly repaired and rebuilt as a three-aisled church in the same place. Repairs can be identified both in the apse of the Sanctuary and on the north side of the building, while three other building phases of the Byzantine period can be made out.
During the era of the Despotate of Epirus (1204-1479), the church became a one-room church. In this reconstruction, the early Christian design was preserved, but the windows of the apse were blocked and a third buttress was built. The frescoes of the apse also belong to this same phase, but they were hammered all over to enable the fixing of a newer layer. The Theotokos can be seen between two archangels in imperial robes and a saint on a smaller scale. Originally there would have been other fresco decoration, now no longer visible.
The church took its present form during the Ottoman occupation, having been ruined again in the meantime. The interventions made reduced its original size in the nave and altered several of its features. Most of the long sides and the façade, with a slightly pointed window, the tympanum of which is decorated with a whirlwind of fire, belong to this phase.
