Agios Georgios Church, a metropolitan three-nave church dedicated to St. George, the patron saint of the town, dominates over Paralimni’s town square. The church was built in the traditional Byzantine style from 1963 to 1966 and decorated with modern frescoes, and two mosaic icons toboth sides of the main entrance: The Saviour and The Miracle of George of the Dragon. The dome is adorned with an impressive fresco that depicts the Lord Almighty surrounded by archangels, prophets and saints. The Byzantine three-nave church has a stunning interior: wall paintings in the style of modern frescoes, intricate woodwork, and outstanding icons. The most impressive example is on the arch of the dome and is of the Lord Almighty surrounded by archangels, prophets and saints. There is also a tall gilded iconostasis.
Nearby, on the surrounding square there is a church shop that sells books, icons, incense burners and oil lamps made of coloured glass.
