The Administrative Church Council of "Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary" parish of Katafygion village has the legal authority and the responsibility to care for and maintain the parish church edifice and all other aspects of the religious life and secular activities of the parish including the maintenance and preservation of the Church of Saint Nicholas. This Council legally and formally considered by the Greek State as a Philanthropic and charity entity. In 2022 the Ministry of Culture of the Hellenic Republic officially declared the church edifice of Saint Nicholas of the village of Katafygion a "protected monument of Greek heritage" affirming that the building is of great historical value, constituting a rare and unique monument of Byzantine art. Consequently, all restoration work performed on the building must abide by strictly predetermined procedures. All restoration works require that detailed technical studies be conducted, according to the standards of the Special Committee of the Hellenic Ministry of Culture, which has to grant its approval following the aforementioned evaluation. The cost of the aforementioned studies ranges between 5-10% of the total cost of the restoration work and is borne by the Church Council. The steps for the restoration of the Church of St. Nicholas: Hiring and paying the architectural and artistic restoration specialists who will compose the various restoration studies, i.e.: 1. Architectural study of the church edifice 2. Electro-mechanical study 3. Static and anti-seismic study 4. Maintenance and restoration study of the icons, wall frescoes, Byzantine wood carvings and the other various artistic artifacts of great value The main mission and ultimate purpose of the Church Council of St. Nicholas of Katafygion is to co-ordinate all the necessary procedures, so as to ensure that this project of maintenance and restoration is completed successfully. Faith and religion are not a consideration at all and those participating in our program are not required to belong to any specific faith or religion, nor will they be exposed to any religious messaging. The program's objective is secular and consists in the restoration and maintenance of an important piece of cultural and artistic heritage of the village of Katafygion.
