Description

The Byzantine Emperor Andronikos II. Palaiologos confirmed, that the Church of Hagioi Anargyroi in the vicinity of Strumica was in the possession of the Iberon Monastery on Mount Athos (τὸ περὶ τὴν Στρούμμιτζαν εἰς ὄνομα τιμώμενον τῶν Ἁγίων Ἀναργύρων). The Byzantine Co-Emperor Michael IX. Palaiologos issued in August 1310 a chrysobull charter, in which he also confirmed the possession of the Iberon Monastery over the Church of Hagioi Anargyroi (τὸ εἰς τὴν Στρούμμιτζαν εὐκτήριον τὸ εἰς ὄνομα τιμώμενον τῶν Ἁγίων Ἀναργύρων). The church is mentioned in the fragment of the Praktikon from 1320 listing the holdings of the Iberon Monastery in Palaiokastron (Veljusa) and its surroundings (Μονύδριον τῶν Ἁγίων καὶ ἰαματικ̣ῶν Ἀναργύρων τῆς τοιαύτης σεβασμίας μονῆς). The Metochion was abondened in the beginning of the 20th century due to the lack of monks. Most of the churches in Strumica were destroyed during the fire in 1869 and in 1913.
