It is built on the east bank of the river Setrachos, opposite of the village of Kalopanagiotis. The exact founding date of the monastery is unknown. The katholicon (monastery church), which is dedicated to Saint Herakleidios, is dated to the 11th century. Among the wall-paintings of the narthex there is an inscription, dated to the 15th century, which describes this church as “katholiki”, i.e. the principal parish church of the village. According to other written sources the monastery functioned until the beginning of the 19th century. Since then it has been used as a church. The group of buildings which survives today is the result of constructions and renovations of different periods. The main monastery church is a domed cross-in-square structure, dated to the 11th century. In the 12th century the chapel of Agios Ioannis Lampadistis was added to the north of the first church, above the tomb of the Saint. This second chapel collapsed and was almost entirely rebuilt in the 18th century. In the middle of the 15th century a common narthex was built to the west of the two churches. During the second half of the 15th century a vaulted chapel was added to the north of that of Saint Ioannis. It became known as the 'Latin chapel' because of the assumption that it was built for the Latins (Catholics). Sometime between the 15th and the beginnings of the 18th century), a timber roof covered with flat hooked tiles sheltered the entire roof complex. As a result of its tripartite character, the building acquired an external image of a large building covered with a timber roof. Apart from the complex of the three churches there are other monastic buildings including cells, auxiliary rooms and an oil press. crm:P53_has_former_or_current_location http://www.geonames.org/146669 Republic of Cyprus (Geonames) crm:P102_has_title Monastery of Agios Ioannis Lampadistis hdt:HP26_has_period 11th Century --
