Church of saint Charalampos
Feast day: February 10
The church was erected in 1897, as indicated by the inscriptions encountered in various parts of the church (above the north door; north wall, interior), on the site of an older, perhaps Byzantine church. It was inaugurated on June 4, 1925 by Nikodimos I, Metropolitan of Kition. Later inscriptions mention that it was repaired in 1950; restored after a fire (1958); as well as its most recent renovation (1996-97). The church is a single-aisled basilica with cross vaults. It is covered by five cross vaults and ends in a three-sided conch. The belfry carved in stone is in the north-east corner of the church. The main entrance is to the north, while there are two additional doors and three windows on the north and south sides.
The frames of the windows and of the doors are decorated with carved elements of limestone. The pediment of the northern entrance is decorated by a relief: a shield with a cross with an inscription, placed between two angels. To the right of the western door, in the alcove where the celebrating icon was placed for worship during the litanies, was added a mosaic depiction of saint Charalampos. The church has a wooden gallery (in Greek gynaikonitis) supported by triple-arched columns in Gothic style. Of interest are the various wood-carved artefacts (proskynetarion, iconostasis, altar etc.) from the first half of the 20th century, as well as the icons that previously belonged to the older church and date from the 16th to the 20th century. The feast day of the church is on the 10th of February.
