The Monastery of St. Aberkios is situated on the seashore a short distance east of the village of Elegmi (modern Kurşunlu) on the Bithynian coast on the Propontis (the Sea of Marmara). It is possibly identified with the Monastery of the Theotokos of Elegmi, which was restored by Nikephoros Mystikos under Manuel I. Its typikon, dating to 1162, is preserved in the Monastery of St. John the Theologian in Patmos. It is nearly complete except for the loss of its central dome. This is a single-nave building which was covered with a dome 5 meters in diameter carried on pendentives.
