The Monastery is open for free and include 3 small museums. It’s a private property and the welcome is warm and polite. The location is amazing with a panoramic view over the city of Andros and the sea.
Please go to see this Monastery. It was renovated by a man from Andros over a period of 10 years with local builders. It now houses orphans from Athens. A representation of human spirit in today’s society.
Like the other reviewers said before me, this entire place is a testament to the humanity, and philanthropic efforts of one man, a former ship captain turned ship owner. Absolutely heart-warming place, you should pay a visit if for nothing else, than at least to cheer you up.
(Translated by Google) A beautiful monastery on the heights in Monastery. We cycled here by bike, with a guide, otherwise we would never have found it. A beautiful church with nuns in black habits, no photos are allowed to be taken. The nuns make icons and rugs and other crafts. The inside of the church is beautifully painted and decorated. An older nun gave a tour but was difficult to understand. Beautiful views from the monastery. Highly recommended to visit the monastery. (Original) Een prachtig klooster op de hoogte in Monastery. Met de fiets, met een gids, hier naar toe gefietst anders hadden we het nooit gevonden. Een prachtig kerkje met nonnen in het zwart habijt van beide mogen er geen foto,s gemaakt worden. De nonnen maken iconen en kleden en andere handvaardigheden. Het kerkje is van binnen prachtig beschilderd en ingericht. Een oudere non gaf een rondleiding maar was moeilijk te verstaan. Prachtige vergezichten vanuit het klooster. Een aanrader om het klooster te bezoeken.
(Translated by Google) Very beautiful, nice view, simple but also very nicely made spaces with exhibits, warm hospitality with a tour of the spaces. (Original) Πολύ όμορφο, ωραία θέα, απλοί αλλά και πολύ όμορφα φτιαγμένοι χώροι με εκθέματα , ζεστή φιλοξενία με περιήγηση στους χώρους.
(Translated by Google) A small monastery in a picturesque location, impeccable hospitality and a museum with an excellent tour. (Original) Μικρό μοναστήρι σε γραφική τοποθεσία, άψογη φιλοξενία και μουσείο με εξαιρετική ξενάγηση.
(Translated by Google) The holy monastery of Saint Irene was founded in 1780 in the area of ​​Archontas of Apoikia, by two brother monks from Apoikia with the surname Spyridou. During its heyday, it functioned as a nunnery. However, the monastery was dissolved in 1833, by the decree of Otto's regency, which required the dissolution of the Orthodox monasteries with a limited brotherhood, about a thousand throughout Greece, and the appropriation of their property. Over the years, the areas around the temple collapsed, but the temple remained, having suffered similar damages. The stone-built church with the marble iconostasis built in 1806 and part of the stone wall of the monastery are preserved. Inside the church is kept the miraculous icon (work of 1800) where Saint Irini and Saint Irini Chrysovalantou are present. In 2006, Master Eleftherios Polemis bought the 13-acre estate, which included the ruined monastery. In a period of 10 years, he and his family restored the buildings of the monastery completely respecting their original structure and maintained the Church. Today, the monastery presents a special project. During the summer season, it hosts the camps of children from various institutions. Also, the following museum collections are open throughout the year: 1. History of writing (Michael Kairis collection) 2. Collection of traditional musical instruments 3. Collection of rocks, minerals & fossils (Spyros Bella collection) 4. Elli Mandaraka – Stamatiadou & flora of Andros 5. "Blacksmiths, handiwork" collection (Michael Kairis collection. (Original) Η ιερά μονή αγίας Ειρήνης, θεμελιώθηκε το 1780 στην περιοχή Αρχόντας των Αποικίων, από δύο αδελφούς μοναχούς καταγόμενους από τα Αποίκια με το επώνυμο Σπυρίδου. Κατά την περίοδο της ακμής, λειτούργησε ως γυναικεία μονή. Ωστόσο, η μονή διαλύεται το 1833, με το διάταγμα της αντιβασιλείας του Όθωνος, το οποίο απαιτούσε την διάλυση των ορθόδοξων μονών με περιορισμένη αδελφότητα, περίπου χιλίων σε όλη την Ελλάδα, και την οικειοποίηση της περιουσίας τους. Με το πέρασμα των χρόνων, κατέρρευσαν οι χώροι περιμετρικά του ναού, όμως παρέμεινε ο ναός έχοντας υποστεί ανάλογες φθορές. Σώζονται ο λιθόκτιστος ναός με το μαρμάρινο τέμπλο που κατασκευάσθηκε το 1806 και τμήμα της λίθινης περιτείχισης του μοναστηριού. Εντός του ναού φυλάσσεται η θαυματουργή εικόνα (έργο του 1800) όπου παρίστανται η Αγία Ειρήνη και η Αγία Ειρήνη η Χρυσοβαλάντου. Το 2006, ο πλοίαρχος Ελευθέριος Πολέμης αγόρασε το κτήμα έκτασης 13 στρεμμάτων, το οποίο συμπεριελάμβανε το ερειπωμένο μοναστήρι. Σε ένα διάστημα 10 ετών εκείνος και η οικογένειά του, αναστήλωσαν τα κτίρια της μονής σεβόμενοι απόλυτα την αρχική τους δομή και συντήρησαν τον Ναό. Σήμερα, η μονή παρουσιάζει ένα ιδιαίτερο έργο. Κατά τη θερινή περίοδο φιλοξενεί τις κατασκηνώσεις παιδιών από διάφορα ιδρύματα. Επίσης, καθ’όλη τη διάρκεια του έτους λειτουργούν οι κάτωθι μουσειακές συλλογές: 1. Ιστορία της γραφής (συλλογή Μιχαήλ Καΐρη) 2. Συλλογή παραδοσιακών μουσικών οργάνων 3. Συλλογή πετρωμάτων, ορυκτών & απολιθωμάτων (συλλογή Σπύρου Μπέλλα) 4. Έλλη Μανδαράκα – Σταματιάδου & χλωρίδα της Άνδρου 5. Συλλογή ''Σιδηρουργών, έργα χειρών'' (συλλογή Μιχαήλ Καΐρη.
