The Monastery of Saint Thekla the Healer was reportedly founded in the 4th century AD by Saint Helen during her visit to the island. Located in a tranquil green valley, this charming monastery is home to a small community of ten nuns. While there's historic religious artwork to be found inside, the church's most treasured possession is the holy remains of St. Thekla, first female Christian martyr, which are kept in a silver tabernacle. This relic has made the monastery a destination for pilgrims, who come seeking healing from various skin conditions.
