Church Conservation in the Occupied Territories

Conservation work will soon begin on two important churches in the occupied territories: the Church of Agios Prokopios in Syngrasis and the Church of Panagia Akentous in Lefka. The preservation of the cultural heritage of both communities is considered an important measure of confidence-building. The Church of Agios Prokopios is built on the ruins of an early Christian basilica from the 6th century and decorated with frescoes, while the Church of Panagia Akentous is listed as an ancient monument.
