Archiepiskopou Makariou III Paralimni Ammochostos
See route
The byzantine, 13th century chapel in the center of Paralimni, built using local limestone is dedicated to Mother Mary but it is referred to as ‘Agia Anna’, a name that was given to it when it was restored. The original chapel was decorated with frescoes. These frescoes have been destroyed and only some remnants betray their previous existence. The chapel now serves as an ecclesiastical museum where icons of the 16th and 19th centuries, holy relics, and old books are exhibited.
