The Museum

The museum is located in same wing as the library. It was inaugurated in 1998, when the millennium of the monastery was celebrated. In addition to the two mosaic icons of Sts Georgios and Demetrios, it also hosts many other precious works of art, including a 12th-century icon of Panagia Hodigitria, and a small 13th-century steatite icon depicting the Transfiguration. A recently published catalogue of the exhibition thoroughly informs the visitor about the artifacts.
