Two ornately-decorated 18th-century doors stolen decades ago from a Cypriot church have finally arrived back on the divided island from Japan after a long legal battle.
Cyprus’s Orthodox Church formally took charge of the doors from the church of Saint Anastasios in Peristeronopigi village on Thursday.
Built in 1775, the church sits atop a cave where the saint’s grave is preserved. The carved and gilded wooden doors, painted with religious scenes, were stolen after the Turkish invasion of 1974.
