the convent farm
Each monastery and convent are a piece of heaven on earth, a reminder that human nature has been created for something greater, and that working on the every day and the perishable, may become a path to the heavenly, when offered in gratitude and with praise to God.

Workshops
The southern part of the Metochion complex houses the Workshops: The Icon painting workshop, the drawing workshop; the needlework shop; the vestment tailoring workshop; the loom room; the woodwork shop and mosaic workshop, all of which continue the century-old tradition of manufacturing church art artefacts. This is where tradition meets scientific knowledge of the past – knowledge that cherishes the wealth of yesteryear and uses it without compromising the special features of this art to build an equally worthy future.
