Trikoukkiotissa Monastery stands on a mountain road near Prodromos. One explanation of its unusual name connects it to a plant whose fruit has three stones. The exact date of foundation is unknown, but the monastery existed in medieval times.

Local devotion to the Virgin is associated with prayers for rain. Tradition counted the monastery's image among the icons of Luke the Evangelist and says it was carried out during droughts. The icon now venerated at the monastery continues this tradition. The monastery fell into disuse and a monastic community returned around the turn of the 21st century.

The story of the icon explains why this remote mountain monastery mattered to the surrounding villages. During droughts residents took part in processions and asked the Virgin for rain. Accounts of the monastery distinguish early references to the revered image from the history of the present icon. The tradition has survived, but that does not mean the original wooden icon still exists.

The buildings changed in purpose and condition over the years. In the 20th century the site was also associated with forestry before it was adapted for monastic life again. Fired clay inserts stand out against the stonework. The buildings around the church form an inner courtyard.

The main church is a stone basilica with three aisles and decorative tile inserts in the masonry. Around it are the courtyard, a garden and the monastery buildings. Snow is possible in this part of the Troodos Mountains in winter, so check road conditions before travelling.
