Monks have walked this path for almost 500 years. The path leads into the courtyard of Metochi, which is a part of the Limonos Monastery in Lesbos. Since 1993 Metochi has been a study centre for the Norwegian University of Agder. Enter in – to a stay characterized by hospitality and reflection, conversation and quiet.

In connection with Metochi Study Centre’s 10-year anniversary in 2003, an informal cooperation with the Norwegian art photographer Knut Bry was initialized. His generous contributions resulted in a series of gift cards and a poster with Metochi motives. All the photographs found on Metochi’s web pages are by Knut Bry.
The University of Agder is the only university in Norway to have been awarded the ECTS-label, a certificate proving that the university follows the EU’s recommended quality assurance routines for information about and approval of student exchange.
