Iera Moni Ayias Kiriakis

Two kilometers before the town of Alistrati, on the way from Drama to Serres, in an evergreen landscape, we find the second oldest monastery of the area.

Repeatedly destroyed by Turks and Bulgarians, the monastery managed to maintain from its original form only the main entrance. In 1956 the current abbess was stationed there and the restoration work began. The monastery was initially for monks and in 1906 had a man power of 95 monks.

Today the monastery is a nunnery and celebrates the memory of Ayia Kiriaki on July the 7th.
