Church of Saint Euphemianos, Byzantine church in Lysi, Cyprus.
The Church of Saint Euphemianos features a single-dome stone structure with intricate frescoes decorating its interior walls and ceiling.
Built in the 13th century, this medieval church housed precious frescoes until 1974 when they were removed during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus.
The church stands as a testament to Byzantine religious art, with its dome formerly displaying the Christ Pantocrator surrounded by angels.
Located 2 kilometers southwest of Lysi village in the Famagusta district, the church remains a significant destination for religious studies.
The church's frescoes were divided into 38 pieces and later restored through the Menil Foundation before returning to Cyprus in 2012.
