Agios Nikolaos Monastery was built on 1805 over the old port of the island of Spetses, in the area of Baltiza.
Agios Nikolas (Saint Nikolaos) is the protector of the people of Spetses, of sailors and fishmen.
The Monastery is the place where the leaders of Spetses took the oath of liberty right before the Greek Independence War of 1821.
