Cyprus, Greece and Italy plan to promote St Paul cultural route

August 11, 2021

Paphos aims to form part of a certified religious route for travellers dedicated to ‘the footsteps of Saint Paul’, as part of a European programme which will also include areas in Greece and Italy.

The Paphos tourism board announced earlier this week it had submitted to the Council of Europe an application to certify and register the cultural and religious route that will be called “In the footsteps of St Paul, Apostle of the Nations”.
 
The aim of the route is to link up sites where St Paul visited and taught initially in Cyprus, Greece and Italy. The aim is to highlight the rich cultural heritage and legacy of St Paul in the formation of Christianity in Europe.
