PILGRIMAGE
TO SOURP MAGARAVANK
 Sunday
9 May 2010 - The Office of the Representative of the Armenian
Community, Mr Vartkes Mahdessian, in co-operation with the Armenian
Prelature of Cyprus, organised last Sunday 9 May 2010 the third
visit-pilgrimage to the Sourp Magar Monastery (Magaravank). The first
time was on 6 May 2007, when Armenian Cypriots visited the occupied
Armenian Monastery as a community after 33 years. According to the
Representative’s Office, around 200 Armenian Cypriots visited the
monastery on Sunday, some of whom came especially from abroad.
The monastery was founded by Copts around the year 1000 AD
and in 1425 it was inherited by the Armenians. It is dedicated to Saint
Makarios the Hermit of Alexandria and it is located in the eastern part
of the Turkish-occupied Pendadhaktylos at an altitude of 550 metres and a
small distance from Halevga, within the Plataniotissa forest. The vast
land of the monastery, which is over 8.000 donums, includes 30.000 olive
and carob trees, extends up to the sea and is known to be picturesque
and idyllic. From the monastery one can see the Taurus mountain range in
Cilicia, which is right opposite.
The Armenian Monastery had been for centuries a popular
pilgrimage for Armenians and non-Armenians and a place of recuperation
for Catholicoi (Patriarchs) and other clerics from Cilicia, Jerusalem
and Armenia, as well as a popular centre for local and foreign
travellers and for pilgrims en route to the Holy Land. Furthermore, the
monastery was used as a summer resort, where Armenian scouts and
students would camp, including students of the Melkonian Educational
Institute, many of whom were orphans of the Armenian Genocide. A large
number of exquisite and priceless manuscripts, dating back to 1202, as
well as other valuable ecclesiastical relics were housed there.
Fortunately, in 1947 some of them were saved when they were transferred
to the "Cilicia” museum of the Catholicosate of Cilicia.
The Magaravank is the only Armenian monastery in Cyprus and
together with the church of the Virgin Mary in occupied Nicosia, it is
the most important Armenian church monument on the island. It was
occupied in 1974 during the Turkish invasion and ever since it remains
at the mercy of nature, silent, ruined, desecrated and deserted,
awaiting for its rightful owners to return.
