The Church of the Protaton is dedicated to the Dormition of the Virgin Mary. It is located near the headquarters of the Epistassia and was built in the first half of the 10th century. Not only is it the oldest church on Mount Athos, it is also the only example of a three-aisled basilica with two narthexes. The north narthex is simply a portico. The church was restored at the end of the 13th century and frescoed some years later by Manuel Panselinos, a famous exponent of the Macedonian School of painting. Not far from the church stands the bell-tower, which was built in 1534 by the Protos Seraphim. (http://www.macedonian-heritage.gr/Athos/Town/Karyes.html)

大劳拉修道院 （希腊语：Μεγίστη Λαύρα）。
公元963年，修士圣亚他那修的安東尼 (Άγιος Αθανάσιος ο Αθωνίτης)得到朋友——皇帝尼基弗鲁斯二世的支持, 大勞拉修道院（the monastery of Great Lavra）開始建造，到今天他仍是20个修道院中最大、最著名的一所。(http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/阿索斯山)
The Monastery of Megisti Lavra (or Great Lavra) is built on the south-eastern end of the Athos Peninsula and is the earliest and biggest foundation on Mount Athos. It was founded by the monk Athanasios the Athonite during the years of the Emperors Romanos the Second and Nikephoros Phocas. He is considered to be the founder of Athonite monasticism and the Holy Monastery of Great Lavra is the mother monastery of Mount Athos. The monastery occupies the first rank in the hierarchical order of the twenty Athonite monasteries. It is inhabited by 317 monks (1990), the most in comparison to the other monasteries, and is coenobitic (communal).
The katholikon has served as a model for all the katholika of the Athonite monasteries. It was built in 963 by Athanasios. It is a four-columned church with a dome. Restoration works performed at later times gave the church a cross-like shape. First it was dedicated to the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, but in the 15th century it was dedicated to Saint Athanasios Athonite. The katholikon is frescoed in the 16th century, by Theophanes the Cretan, a famous representative of the Cretan painting school. Left and right of the eso-narthex are two chapels dedicated to Saint Nicholas and to the Forty Martyrs. The tomb of Saint Athanasios is lying in the chapel of Forty Martyrs.

主教堂(katholikon or kyriakon)的明信片很难找到，错过首日戳。Near the centre of the settlement is the central church called Kyriakon (Κυριακόν, that could be translated "for Sunday"), where the whole brotherhood meets for the Divine Liturgy service, on Sundays and on greater feasts.
