October 10, 2026

The Archdiocese acquired a large tract of land following a court decision that resolved a 78-year legal dispute. This ruling pertained to a 1948 agreement and the transfer of properties from Hellenic Mining Public Company Limited. Some of the land parcels exceed 30,000 square meters. The National Bank of Greece was unaware of the property in question, which was purchased for 150,000 Cypriot pounds. This situation highlights the complexity of property ownership in Cyprus.
