Preservation efforts continue at one of Cyprus’ most historic landmarks

Conservation works at the Apostolos Andreas Monastery in Rizokarpaso are progressing steadily and remain on schedule, following a recent on-site inspection by project partners. The visit aimed to review the ongoing restoration efforts and ensure that all works are aligned with the agreed timeline and technical requirements.

Technical experts confirmed that the project is advancing smoothly, with a strong focus on preserving the monastery’s structural integrity while respecting its historical and architectural significance.
