Lagia is a village in southeast Mani with some stone mansions and a Greek Orthodox Church on the main square. The Church of the Assumption (Εκκλησία Κοίμησεως της Θεοτόκου) is built on a slope. Through the door in the tower one will reach a kind of balcony, which gives a view on the beautiful frescoes on the walls and ceiling. A staircase leads to the ground floor of this remarkable village church.

The church was constructed about 200 years ago with the full participation of local men and women, with building materials gathered from the surrounding mountains.
