Panagia Faneromeni Church

Nicosia · Greek Orthodox

A brief history

The present Orthodox parish church in Nicosia’s old town was built in 1872–73 and consecrated in 1911. It replaced an earlier church on a former convent site.

An interesting detail

A marble mausoleum beside the church preserves the remains of bishops and priests executed by Ottoman authorities on 9 July 1821.
