The monastery of Zographou
According to tradition the founders of this 406
monastery of Zographou, which is ninth in the hierarchy and is
dedicated to saint Georgios were the brothers
Ioannis, Moses and Aaron from Ochrid (in the
time of Leon VI the Wise, A.D. 880-912). However,
the text of the First Typikon makes it clear that
the monastery already existed in the l0th century
A.D. Concern for its well-being was shown by
the Palaiologoi (Michael VIII, Andronikos II and
Ioannis V) and by many of the rulers of Hungro-Wallachia.
