Meseleroi is named after two ancient towns, Oleros and Oleria, as it is located in the middle (in Greek: meson, meaning middle, + Oleros-ia). A few ancient ruins in the area still survive to this day. The main sight of the village is the Monastery of Panagia Vryomeni, which attracts many visitors during the Orthodox Feast of the Dormition (Falling Asleep) of the Theotokos on 15 August.
Meseleroi
The natural environment of Meseleroi suffered greatly during the wildfire that took place on August 17, 1994, which destroyed most of the pineforest that encircled the village. However, right after the fire, there were attempts to reforestate the destroyed part and restore as much of the natural beauty as possible.
