The temple is dedicated to the Transfiguration of Christ or St. Saviour as called and was built in 1893.Turn years back during the Turkish occupation. Then in Vilia there were three parishes, Panagitsa and Agios Dimitrios one, St. Athanasius the second and the third Archangels. With the liberation from the Turks the then Ministry of Ecclesiastical Affairs and Public Education that is the current Ministry of Education in the year 1858 held that the town Eidyllia (the then name of Vilia) consisted of a single parish, that of the Archangels, and so it happened. The sacred temple of Brigadiers predated the church of Transfiguration but after the union of parishes in 1858 in the major holidays could not serve all residents of Eidyllia region thereby establishing the need to construct a new temple. The temple was small in size compared with the population of the region and thus created the need to construct a new larger church.
