Monastery of Archangel Michael's Thassos - Greece
Monastery of Archangel Thassos
The Nunnery of Archangelos Michael is the greatest and most famous monastery of Thassos and is an important pilgrimage. The Monastery of Archangelos is located 35 kilometers west of the Port of Thassos.
It is built on the edge of a cliff near the village of Theologos and the view of the Aegean is really fascinating, giving the visitor the feeling of being suspended.
In this position, ascetic Loukas, obeying the command of Archangel Michael, built in 1110 AD small chapel in which holy water gushed.
According to tradition, infidel Turks wanted once to destroy the source. Then it dried up miraculously and flowed, and still gushes in a cave near the sea. The sacrilegious fell dead.
Years later, again miraculously, reached to the church the Holy Nail (the nail that came at the right hand of the crucified Christ) which was dedicated by Emperor Nikiforos Botaniatis to Philotheos Monastery in Mount Athos.
After years in the position of the church founded the Monastery, as a dependency of the Monastery Philotheos.
In 1974 came nuns from Pilion, which together with Athonite monk worked hard and transformed the monastery.
For Thassos and particularly for residents of Theologos, Archangelos Michael is their patron saint. The Grace of Archangelos and the uniqueness and blessing of the Holy Nail is a reason of large turnout of pilgrims.
Celebrated on November 8, the feast of the Archangel and Easter Tuesday.

In the year 829 this Holy Icon of the Theotokos, which according to tradition was painted by the hand of St. Luke the Evangelist, was kept in a beautiful church in the renowned city of Proussa. Today the church still stands in the city named Brusa, which is in Turkey near Constantinople. Many miracles have taken place in this Church.
The Monastery has existed for one thousand years and still stands today. It has withstood the ravages of natural and manmade disasters. The main church, dedicated to the Dormition of the Theotokos, is in the cave. The ancient and incense-darkened Icon remains in the inner cave, surrounded by countless precious offerings. The offerings are truthful witnesses to innumerable miracles of times past and present. The village of Proussos has been built near the Monastery.
Πολλοί το ονομάζουν Σπίτι της Παναγιάς, καθώς κατά την παράδοση το μοναστήρι στο χωριό Προυσός της Ευρυτανίας χτίστηκε στο σημείο το οποίο επέλεξε κατά θαυματουργό τρόπο η Υπεραγία Θεοτόκος.
Ψηλά, στις ελατόφυτες βουνοκορφές της νοτιοδυτικής Ευρυτανίας, και σφηνωμένη ανάμεσα σε κάθετους γκριζωπούς βράχους με άγρια μεγαλοπρέπεια, προβάλλει η ιερά μονή του Προύσου. Είναι σταυροπηγιακό και ιστορικό μοναστήρι, με μεγαλόπρεπα τριώροφα κτίρια. Ανάμεσα τους υπάρχει σπήλαιο λαξευμένο, που φιλοξενεί στο εσωτερικό του τον πρώτο και παλαιό ναό της μονής. Μέσα σ' αυτόν φυλάσσεται η θαυματουργή εικόνα της Παναγίας, που επονομάζεται Προυσιώτισσα και εορτάζει με κάθε εκκλησιαστική και βυζαντινή μεγαλοπρέπεια στις 22-23 Αυγούστου.

Thasos, Best of beaches & Sites: Greece | An Exotic island - Guide
THASOS: THE EMERALD ISLAND IN THE NORTHERN AEGEAN
A verdant splash upon an expanse of azure: intensely traditional, Thasos will enthrall you. Thasos, island of the Sirens, offers you as many options as there are colours in the blues of the sea and sky, the greens of the trees and the golden hues of the sandy beaches. This island in the North Aegean is one of the best options for your summer holiday in Greece, thanks to its beautiful beaches and traditional allure. You will enjoy your stay in the excellent hotels, sample local delicacies in the villages, hike the trails and seek out the island’s secrets. If you are a nature lover, into water sports or just want to taste the good life, Thasos is your ideal emerald escape.
What to do on Thasos
An island for nature lovers
On Thasos, you will find yourself engulfed in a sea of green, which comes in many shades and moods. Take the tree-lined roads from the beaches to the ravines, lakes, cascades and footpaths around the villages. Rewarding trails like Maries-Prinos, Panagia-Potamia-Ypsario, Kallirahi-Prinos or Hrisi Ammoudia-Limenas can be enjoyed on foot or by mountain bike. For lovers of outdoor sports, Thasos is the ideal summer destination for an adventure-filled holiday.
Arrival at Limenas
This is Thasos’ link to the mainland and its capital since antiquity. Be sure to see the ancient agora; the sanctuaries of Herakles, Dionysos, Artemis and Poseidon; the Acropolis with its incredible view and the 5th century BC theatre – all testament to the island’s long history. To get back to today’s world, walk through the central market and its dozens of shops as well as the small harbour on the beach. At night you’ll have fun choosing your favourite from among dozens of restaurants and bars.
Palataki at Limenaria
Palataki (little palace) is a two-storey rectangular building with a pair of towers, a typical example of eclecticism. Built in the early 1900s to provide office space for Speidel, the German company that was in charge of the island’s mines, it’s considered the most impressive of the administrative buildings in the Aegean and it’s surrounded by one of the most important industrial monuments in the Mediterranean, namely the mine itself. Thasos has been a centre of mining operations since antiquity with rich deposits of mercury, lead, iron, manganese and white marble.
Paradise on Earth
It’s all in the name! The exotic beach that goes by the moniker Paradise is considered one of the finest in the Aegean.
The beaches of Thasos
You will probably run out of stamina before Thasos runs out of beaches: Chrysi Akti, Chrysi Ammoudia, Agios Antonios, Alykes, Trypiti, Skala Potamia, Paralia Limena, Pefkari, Skala Rahoiou, Gkiola, Saliara or Marble beach, as the enamoured foreign tourists call it, all combine the azure of the sea, pale or golden sand and enchantingly verdant backdrops. Topping it off are the tavernas, beach bars and water sports available at some of the most popular beaches.
Activities
Thasos has it all; scuba diving and instructors at Pefkari, water skiing at Chrysi Ammoudia, Pefkari and Psili Ammos, windsurfing at Paradise and boat rides to the most isolated beaches from all over. Fun and games in the sea and wind on the island of your dreams.
High-end hospitality
No matter your budget, Thasos will more than satisfy you. Whether you opt for one of the five-star hotels and villas, or just a room or furnished apartment, everything is here for you, from swimming pools and poolside bars with a view of the sea in a well-tended garden, to water massages and high class restaurants..
Thassos is the northernmost Greek island, and 12th largest by area. Thassos island is known from ancient times for its termae making it a climatic and balneoclimateric resort area. Thasos' economy relies on timber (it is rich in forests), marble quarries, olive oil and honey. Tourism has also become important since the 1960s, although not to the level of other Greek islands. Thasos, the capital, is now informally known as Limenas, or the port. It is served by a ferry route to and from Keramoti a port close to Kavala International Airport, and has the shortest possible crossing to the island. Scala Prinos 20 km south of Thassos town is served by a ferry route to and from Kavala.

ARCHANGEL MICHAEL MONASTERY - Thassos
Manastir svetog Arhangela Mihaila .
Prisustvo, čuda i značaj manastira svetog Arhangela Mihaila na Tasosu, povezani su sa istorijom svetog klina (eksera) koji je bio u Hristovoj desnoj ruci prilikom raspeća.
U četvrtom veku, majka Konstantina Velikog odlučila je da sagradi crkve na svim mestima koja su važna za Hristov život. Tokom kopanja za hram svetog Vaskrsenja tj. groba Hristovog, pronađen je Hristov Časni Krst koji je odnet u Carigrad.
Jedan od vizantijskih careva obnovio je manastir Filotej na Svetoj Gori i poklonio mu mnogo svetinja, a između ostalog i sveti klin.
Kada su Turci osvojili Grčku nametnuli su manastirima velike poreze pa su monasi iz manastira Filotej odlučili da pošalju nekoliko kaluđera sa svetinjama, (poneli su između ostalog i sveti klin), u ostale pravoslavne zemlje, Rusiju, Srbiju, Rumuniju, kako bi im one zauzvrat poslale pomoć. Kaluđere je zahvatila oluja pa su bili prinuđeni da se iskrcaju na Tasos, na mestu gde se nalazila kapelica svetog Arhangela. Ubrzo zatim na isto mesto stigli su i gusari koji su opljačkali i pobili kaluđere, ali je jedan od kaluđera pre toga uspeo da sakrije svetinje između kamenja, u zidu stare kapelice.
Nedugo posle, čovek po imenu Jovan, izlečio se od teške bolesti na izvoru kod kaplice svetog Arhangela pa je u znak zahvalnosti odlučio da obnovi crkvu. Graditelji su u zidu pronašli srebrni kovčežić sa svetinjama kao i drveni krst sa klinom. Kada su iz manastira Filotej saznali da su svetinje pronađene na Tasosu, naredili su da se odmah vrate manastiru Filotej sto je i učinjeno. Međutim sveti Arhangel Mihail je želeo da sveti klin ostane na Tasosu pa je, javljajući se u snu kaluđerima manastira Filotej, naređivao da se sveti klin vrati na Tasos. S obzirom na to da ga kaluđeri nisu poslušali jednog dana su primetili da klina nema i da se sam sveti Arhangel pobrinuo za to da se klin nađe tamo gde mu je i mesto, u manastiru svetog Arhangela na Tasosu. I dan danas se taj dan povratka svetog klina, obeležava na Tasosu tj. u Teologosu, nedelju dana posle Vaskrsa.
