Chapel of Venerable Elizabeth in Agios Amvrosios of Cyprus


In the village of Agios Amvrosios in Limmasol, Cyprus, there is preserved a very old medieval chapel with distinctive frescoes. This chapel is dedicated to the Venerable Elizabeth the Wonderworker and is considered a priceless jewel of the village.

The church has a unique architectural style and is situated in a secluded yet peaceful setting. In addition, the entire structure is protected by the Department of Antiquities.

Inside the church, there are impressive frescoes of saints with vivid colors, dating from the 16th century. Many of them are preserved in very good condition, despite the passage of time.

Though her feast is celebrated on April 24th, if it falls before Easter then she is celebrated on Bright Monday, the day after Easter.
