==Iconostasis and icons==
Writing in the 1930s, Rupert Gunnis noted the [[iconostasis]] painted in blue and gold, the doors of which are dated 1650, thus during the reign of [[Mehmed IV]] when the tax burden appears to have been lightened.<ref>Rupert Gunnis, ''Historic Cyprus; A Guide to Its Towns and Villages, Monasteries and Castles'' (London: Methuen & Co, 1936): 195; Harry Luke, ''Cyprus Under the Turks, 1571-1878: A Record Based on the Archives of the English Consulate in Cyprus Under the Levant Company and After'' (London: C. Hurst, 1969): 30-31.</ref> The majority of the icons were of the seventeenth century with one of the Archangel Michael dated 1659.<ref>Rupert Gunnis, ''Historic Cyprus; A Guide to Its Towns and Villages, Monasteries and Castles'' (London: Methuen & Co, 1936): 195.</ref>

The iconostasis was removed after 1975 and some individual icons panels from it were found with a private collector in the Netherlands. The Government of Cyprus engaged in legal action to secure their restitution.<ref>http://www.mcw.gov.cy/mcw/DA/DA.nsf/All/5C63072411078AB9C22572750055D67D Retrieved June 2016</ref> Four icons were repatriated in September, 2013.<ref>http://art-crime.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/after-decade-long-fight-cyprus-recovers.html Retrieved June 2016.</ref> Separately, an icon from the church showing the Virgin Mary and dating to the fifteenth century was located in Athens and returned to Cyprus on 14 September 1998.<ref>According to: http://kypros.org/Occupied_Cyprus/kalogrea/ Retrieved June 2016</ref>
