"Perched on top of a huge vertical boulder, The Holy Trinity Monastery is truly impressive but also the most difficult one to access. To get to the monastery, you first need to follow a path to the foot of the rock and then climb up 140 steps. In case you’re a James Bond fan, you’ll definitely want to see this monastery as it was one of the filming locations of the movie ‘For Your Eyes Only’. The Monastery of Agia Triada in Meteora: The historical monastery of Agia Triada (Holy Trinity) stands on top of one of the most impressive rocks of Meteora. It was founded around the 13th century by some monks, that were seeking refugee from the invading Turkish troops. Visitors can reach the top of the monastery by climbing about 140 steep steps.
Nowadays, only one monk lives in this monastery. He is also the one who guides the visitors that arrive at Meteora every year. The monastery consists of a beautiful church that dates back to the 15th century, a refectory, a courtyard, and a few guesthouses. Inside the monastery manuscripts and remarkable frescoes are preserved. The view from the monastery is just breathtaking.
This is the monastery that was featured in the 1981 James Bond movie For Your Eyes Only.

" The most isolated and hardest to reach of the Meteora monasteries, the Monastery of the Holy Trinity sits off on its own on an island of stone. Reached by a 140 step staircase, this monastery has received multiple renovations over the years. Picturesque with awesome views out over Kalambaka, it’s not surprising that it was used as a film location for the 1981 James Bond film For Your Eyes Only."
