About Profitis Elias Monastery
The Holy Monastery of Profitis Elias stands near Agia Marina Skillouras, in the part of the Nicosia district under Turkish military occupation since 1974. Its original church dates to 1508; Maronite monks returning to Cyprus in 1673, after an earlier Ottoman-era expulsion, were granted the existing church, and the wider complex was built out from 1735 into a lower monastery, an upper monastery and eight residential houses. During the 1974 invasion it was bombed, burned and later looted; a limited annual pilgrimage has been permitted since 2006.
