The church of the Birth of the Virgin at Polydendri, Agia, was the katholikon of a small monastery, first recorded in the Ottoman archives in 1569/70. It is of a single-aisle dromical type with a narthex on the west side. The wall-paintings in the interior are dated to 1590, on the basis of a dedicatory inscription now detached from the wall. They include two zones of Christological scenes and one of full- standing saints. This painting is linked with earlier and contemporary workshops in Macedonia, as is the case in other monuments of eastern Thessaly in this period.
