Agios Neophytos Monastery

Founded in 1159 by the Cypriot saint and writer Neophytos, the Agios Neophytos Monastery is a remarkable religious site carved into a mountain rock just north of Paphos. The monastery’s rugged, natural setting contrasts with its rich historical and cultural significance. Visitors can explore the on-site museum, which houses a collection of religious manuscripts, garments, and other artifacts, offering a glimpse into the monastic life and spiritual heritage of the region. A small number of monks still reside here, adding to the authentic and serene atmosphere.
