The chapel’s name is derived from Agia Solomoni, the first Cypriot to reject paganism to become a Christian.She did so to escape persecution from the Romans and took refuge in the cave. The entrance to the cave was walled up, subjecting Solomon to a slow and painful death.T wo centuries later, the same cave was opened, and miraculously, Agia Solomoni walked out alive. Agia Solomoni is an assemblage of mesmerizing chambers, paintings, and catacombs. There is also an open court and a spring, When you gaze at the west chamber’s apse, you’ll be privy to an array of Christian paintings and 13th-century graffiti cut into the plaster by Crusaders who visited the chapel. Topping the ensemble rests a holy tree adorned with rags and bits of clothing left by people who make a wish and believe the tree has divine healing powers.
