Our Lady of the Wind / Saydet el-Rih (Anfeh)

Small church on the rocky Anfeh peninsula, originally a Byzantine chapel that the Crusaders rebuilt and expanded by adding a western narthex and a northern chamber. It is one of the very few churches in Lebanon to retain medieval frescoes from the Crusader era, depicting saints, angels and biblical scenes including the sacrifice of Isaac.
