Ε	ΕΜΜΑΝΟΥΗΛ ΠΛΟΥΜΑΚΗΣ on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Πρόκειται για το σπουδαιότερο μνημείο των Αστρακών το οποίο χρονολογείται το 12ο αι. μΧ. (1114) Στο υψηλότερο σημείο του έρημου χωριού Κάτω Αστρακοί δέσποζε ο Άγιος Γεώργιος "ο Βουρβουλίτης", ο οποίος δυστυχώς σήμερα βρίσκεται σε ερειπωμένη κατάσταση. Κτισμένος στη θέση παλαιοχριστιανικής Βασιλικής, βυζαντινός τρίκλητος ναός με πρόναο, ίσως σταυροειδής με τρούλο. Από το εσωτερικό των τοιχωμάτων καταλαβαίνουμε ότι ήταν κατάγραφος (αγιογραφημένος). Η παράδοση θέλει τον Άη Γιώργη να ήταν πολύ πλούσιος με χρυσές καμπάνες και ιερά σκεύη. Ήταν λένε τόσος ο πλούτος του ναού που με έξοδα του κτίστηκε η μονή του Αγίου Γεωργίου του Απανωσήφη. Από το κέντρο του Ιερού πήγαζε βλυχό νερό (αγίασμα) το οποίο διέσχιζε το ναό και έβγαινε από τον πρόναο. It is the most important monument of Astrakas dating from the 12th century. A.D. (1114) At the highest point of the deserted village of Kato Astrakoi towered St. George "the Vourvoulitis" which unfortunately is now in a dilapidated condition. Built in the early Christian basilica, triklitos Byzantine church with vestibule, perhaps cruciform with a dome. From the inside of the walls we can see that it was logged (painted). Tradition wants St. George to be very rich with golden bells and sacred vessels. It was said so much the wealth of the church that at his own expense the monastery of St. George of Apanosifis was built. From the center of the Sanctuary was poured water (holy water) which crossed the temple and came out of the pronaos.
