Cave of the Apocalypse

The cave is located north near the Monastery of St. John the Theologian. It is the worship place of a building complex known as the Monastery of the Apocalypse. The Chapel of St. John has been built in the spacious opening of the cave. Its wooden iconostasis is decorated with important post-Byzantine paintings. The main iconographic theme of the Chapel is the depiction of Saint John who narrates the Revelation to his student.
