Saint Neophytos the Recluse, also known as Saint Neophytos of Cyprus, lived as a hermit and left a vast theological and cultural imprint on the history of his homeland and the Orthodox world at large – his story is now live on Europeana, thanks to a blogpost produced and published in the context of EUreka3D-XR project by Photoconsortium’s member Cyprus University of Technology. The project is in the process of recreating Saint Neophytos’ enkleistra as a virtual experience which will include the first-ever recording of the liturgy that is held on the Saint’s feast day and celebrated only twice a year.
