Skete of Prophet Elijah

The Skete of Prophet Elijah (Σκήτη Προφήτη Ηλία, Ильинский скит) is a cenobitic skete of Pantokratoros monastery in Mount Athos, Greece.

It was founded in 1759 by Paisius Velichkovsky, a Ukrainian monk from Poltava. Within the complex are a main church (built 1903) and three chapels. There are also an extensive library and two icons reputedly with miraculous powers.

The historic Holy Aqueduct (Mount Athos) (Υδατογέφυρο Στη Σκήτη Προφήτη Ηλία Παντοκράτορος) is located in the skete.
