The Church is one of the best maintained in the island. Most of the interior is in superb condition, but some dampness has recently developed on the southern wall.

at the Church of Ayios Haralambos. Karavas, September, 2008. They have just completed inspecting some of the damage caused by dampness in the church. Theo Kapatanios Poulos is an Executive Member of the Karavitiko Symposium, Sydney. Outline as to how the damage occurred A row of large trees had been planted in the earth about 3 metres to the left of the southern side wall of the Church at Ayios Haralambos.
The steps have been raised by natural causes over the years, causing the water to flow back into the Church. This is one of two dampness problems effecting Ayios Haralambos at the moment. The first is that, a row of large trees had been planted in the earth about 3 metres to the left of the southern side wall of the Church at Ayios Haralambos. Over time the roots raised the cocncrete slab that buts up to the Church on the right.
Note the earth surround on the left hand (southern) side. A row of large trees had been planted in the earth there. Over time the roots raised the cocncrete slab that buts up to the Church on the right. This caused water to gather against the lower face of the wall, causing, for the first time, moisture to "capillary feed" to the interior of the church. This problem needs to be rectified as quickly as possible. The solution is to break up ...

The church of Saint Varvara. "This 13th century church is a fine example of Byzantine architecture with beuatiful proportions. It is located at the now abandoned Byzantine city of Paliohora. Unfortunately, it has been neglected and all the interior decorations destroyed. With a very strong influence of Monemvasian architecture, this church deserves to be preserved as it is unique both in its architecture and history." From, Peter D Vanges, Kythera. A history ...

Ayios Haralambos Karavas from a period about the 1950's. Scaffolding around one of the houses beneath Ayios Haralambos might help us to date the vintage of this photograph.
Looking up from the valley to what most Karavites regard as the key "icon of the built environment" in Karavas, the magnificent Church of Ayios Haralambos. This picture was taken in the 1970's, when most of the "sculess" - terraces of Karavas were still intact, A great deal of time and effort was taken by Karavites to build these "sculless". Without them, the soil would have eroded away - and nothing would have grown there - including the olive trees.
