One of the most important Orthodox churches and monuments in the world. It is also one of the most beautiful churches I have ever been in and there is a coffin of St. Lazarus as well as a crypt where he was buried under the church. You can visit all of it free of charge and if you want you can donate something to the church. The whole place is just wonderful. If you are in Cyprus a must see.

St. Lazarus Church is a hidden treasure of architectural beauty and spiritual tranquility. The intricate details, serene atmosphere, and rich history make it a must-visit. Whether you seek solace or admire artistry, this church offers a profound experience that will leave you in awe. Highly recommended!

Must visit. Beautiful interior and you can go down to see the tomb. Must wear appropriate clothing.

One of the best preserved Byzantine churches in Europe. True gem to visit.

I recently had the opportunity to visit the ancient Church of St. Lazarus, and it was truly a breathtaking experience. Located in the heart of the city, the church is steeped in rich history and legend, as it is said to be the final resting place of St. Lazarus himself. As I walked through the doors, I was immediately struck by the beauty of the stone architecture. The church is a testament to the skill and artistry of the builders of yesteryear, and the attention to detail is truly impressive. The interior of the church is equally stunning, with ornate frescoes covering the walls and beautiful stained glass windows casting a warm glow on the altar. One of the highlights of my visit was the opportunity to see the tomb of St. Lazarus, which is said to be the final resting place of the saint himself. The tomb is surrounded by beautiful marble statues and intricate carvings, and it is truly a sight to behold. Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to the Church of St. Lazarus to anyone interested in history or architecture. It is a truly beautiful and sacred place, and a true gem in the heart of the city.

The church is the culture of the city! Beautiful architecture, very well preserved and with a lot of history to tell, I recommend the visit! We stayed in a hotel, in front of the Church, in a very quiet square, with many cafes

One of the most interesting places historically to visit in larnaca. Once there ask around for info about the history of this church.

St Lazarus church was such a peaceful visit. The energy in the church and all the other features including interior’s architecture provides is beautiful. Also don’t forget to go downstairs to visit the tomb of St. Lazarus! We even lit candles in honor and thanksgiving.

The Saint Lazarus Church is a historic church located in the city of Larnaca, Cyprus. It is dedicated to Saint Lazarus, the biblical figure who was resurrected by Jesus Christ. The church is one of the most important religious sites in Cyprus and attracts thousands of visitors every year, We participated in Good Friday and it was so nice

Amazing experience. I was able to see the tomb and spend some time in silent meditation in the Church. Wasn’t too crowded for a Saturday. Suggest wearing long pants and ladies covering the shoulders. There are cover-ups available outside the church but they were being used heavily.

Amazing spiritual place. Very important part of the Orthodox Christian religious culture. It’s a must see from religious and cultural point of view. Our 14month old son loved it😊 I was amazed with the place and the story behind it😊

A beautiful Church with fantastic architecture and history. We didn’t go inside the Church as we felt we weren’t dressed appropriately at the time, but they did have shawls/coverings hanging on hooks outside for public use….just peaking though the doors the inside looked wonderful: we will go in on our next visit. They had a QR code (story telling statue) for a link to some audio history of the site, which we thought was excellent.

One of the oldest churches in Larnaca which is very popular with locals and tourists. The church is located in the centre of the Old Larnaca and very easy to reach from he beach front. The church it has a crypt which Saint Lazarus is believed to be buried. It has also got it own separate museum. You will find a lot f cafes and traditional restaurants around the church.

Very unique church and don't forget to visit the basement,where is the tomb of Saint Lazarus!

A small but rather remarkable church in the centre of Larnaka, associated with the Lazarus raised by Jesus from the dead. Steps lead down to the tomb itself, and an ornate silver reliquary is in a prominent position in the centre of the church displaying the bones, of the man itself. The church is architecturally beautiful and the interior ornate, however it excludes an aura of calm simplicity and is both a place of pilgrimage for the religious minded, or merely a quiet spot to escape the heat of the day for the simply curious.

Beautiful church in the heart of Larnaca welcome to all. They offer covering outside to wear temporarily if you are wearing unsuitable clothing. Make sure to check out the tomb of St Lazarus inside!

A stunning beautiful church with a unique architecture from inside and outside. One of the most interesting places to visit in larnaca . Under the church you will found the tomb of saint Lazarus . Free entrance and photos are allowed . Highly recommended and a must visit . Located in its own square in the town centre, the magnificent stone church of Agios Lazaros is one of the most remarkable examples of Byzantine architecture in Cyprus and lies over the tomb of the saint. Built by Byzantine Emperor Leo VI in the 9th century, the church was restored in the 17th century. Although the three domes and original bell tower of the church were destroyed in the first years during Ottoman rule, the gold-covered iconostasis has survived today and is a superb example of baroque woodcarving. Saint Lazarus came to Cyprus after being resurrected by Jesus. He was ordained as Bishop of Kition by the Apostles Barnabas and Paul and lived in the town for 30 years. His tomb can be seen under the sanctuary. The saint is so revered that a procession is held in his honour eight days before Easter. During the procession, the icon of Saint Lazarus is carried through the streets of Larnaka. Next to the church is the Byzantine Museum, which exhibits important religious icons, artefacts and relics.

It is one of the iconic places in Larnca. Once you are there you have to visit it. Easy accessible. It is located near the beach. You will feel some sacred and awe. There are amazing eastern orthodox icons. Small shops for souvenirs. Don't forget to visit the tomb in the basement

Peaceful place, nice arts, rich decoration, and well designed building. I like the chandeliers, their decoration, the art on walls. Too beautiful.

The Church of Saint Lazarus is a late-9th century church in Larnaca, Cyprus. It belongs to the Church of Cyprus, an autocephalous Greek Orthodox Church. The Church of Saint Lazarus is named for New Testament figure Lazarus of Bethany, the subject of a miracle recounted in the Gospel of John, in which Jesus raises him from the dead. According to Eastern Orthodox tradition, sometime after the Resurrection of Jesus, Lazarus was forced to flee Judea because of rumoured plots on his life and came to Cyprus. There, he was appointed by Paul the Apostle and Barnabas as the first Bishop of Kition (now Larnaca). He is said to have lived for thirty more years and on his death was buried there for the second and last time. The Church of Agios Lazaros was built over the reputed second tomb of Lazarus.

Totally worth the visit, great atmosphere and totally for free, you have capes outside if you are wearing a short, its very small and cozy and won’t take time, must visit for the great architectural experience and the flamboyant design inside

St. Lazarus Church was a calm and nice place to visit. Inside, it looked beautiful, and you could go down to see the tomb. It didn't cost anything to get in. Just remember to wear appropriate clothes. Around the church, there are lots of cool shops and cafes.

An interesting place to visit. The grave of Saint Lazarus is below the church as well. The icons and the whole church are well preserved and worth seeing.

A unique and beautiful church, both in history, story of Lazaros, building, and decoration. Great Iconostasis and other beautiful iconic arts, silver case with the alledged remains of Lazaros, cripta of Lazaros gtomb. Most recommended.

The church is super beautiful and has lovely shops around. I'd say you'll be delighted to visit and it's a short walk from the beach

This is a stunningly-beautiful church both outside and inside, positioned right in the heart of the town.

Been to Cyprus twice, & every single time, I go to this place & to the church to thank God for keeping safe from travel

A beautiful authentic church old located in the middle of Larnaca touristic street . 5 min walking distance from the Cornish sea side . If u visit Larnaca u must visit Saint Lazarus church . It’s a blessing to pay a visit and pray 🙏. It was my first time to visit u can light a candle offering for free and buy some souvenirs too . I would love to visit it again and again when I travel to Larnaca again .

A thousand year old church, which is still in active use today. The inside is beautiful, the outside matches it. Appropriate dress is required, free aprons are provided for those in shorts/miniskirts. A must see if you are in the region.

It’s the place to visit in LARNACA, it is a place full of history, ask someone to help you with your visit it is a must !!

According to traditional history, the remains of Saint Lazarus are kept here. It is a beautiful structure typical of the place and its culture, which is in harmony with other modern buildings with a white shade. A street straight from the beach will take you wherever time takes you back. The inside of the building is richly gilded, which makes it different from our Armenian churches.

My favourite church in Cyprus. I love it!

Beautiful both from the outside and the inside. At the entrance one may take a cover for legs and shoulders.

The Church of Saint Lazarus is a late-9th century church in Larnaca, Cyprus. It belongs to the Church of Cyprus, an autocephalous Greek Orthodox Church

Couldn't get inside because it was close until the 16th of Jan 2022, without any indication of its closure on the net.

A beautiful Medieval Orthodox Church with lots of History. I definitely would recommend visiting and seeing the skull of Saint Lazarus. The church also has a Crypt which is accessible and something you don’t see much of In Cyprus.

Very Nice, antique place

Absolutely fantastic place. The church ambience is so peaceful and tranquility. Such a strong history behind it .A must visit when you are in Cyprus

This orthodox church is located in the center of Larnaca, Cyprus. The church originates from the 9th century. Saint Lazarus was buried here. Every year, on Good Froday they organize an epitaph. Thousands of people participate in this ceremony. The entrance is free.

Impressive historical church with reliques and the grave of the holy Lazarus. Don't miss the crypta inside on the right side when you stand in front of the Altar.

Very beautiful! Full of history. Was lucky enough to be there around the Orthodox easter time. Experience the amazing Greel Orthodox easter ceremonies

This church and the surroundings are the heart of Larnaca. The church is beautifully illuminated at night. Go inside - the dark wood and stone architecture is wonderful.

If you are visiting Cyprus for any reason, you want to visit this church. It is part of the fabric of its Christian religion and culture. The surrounding area has a good selection of boutiques and cafes.

It's beautiful on the outside. Unfortunately, we couldn't see the inside because the hours change after October 31 and it's only open until 12:30pm on weekdays.

Amazing ! The church is the most beautiful tourist attraction in Larnaca. You can see all for free . Church is beautiful outside and inside . The rich decorations, icons , the tomb of St. Lazarus made visit impressive . Must see in Larnaca !

One of the only interesting things to see at Larnaca’s Marina area, but unfortunately it isn’t the greatest experience for non-Christian believers or atheists. The structure itself is authentic and old, but fairly small and unimpressive compared to others in Europe.

The best location from Larnaca. Nice and warm atmosphere with peaceful place.

Absolutely beautiful church with incredible iconography. The locals and visitors alike utilize this as a place of worship which is wonderful to witness.

A wonderful place, a great piece of history in the center of town. Inside, the church is a beautiful, excellently preserved building. Everybody is nice there. The inside is very quiet. Around the church, there are stores of church items, and icons, and it's not expensive.

A beautifully decorated Greek Orthodox Church with the tomb of St. Lazarus. Everybody can visit. It’s worth it.
