The Monastery of Panagia of Kykkos bears the name "basilica" because it was built with the financial help of Byzantium Emperor Alexios I of the Great Komnenos (1081-1118). The Monastery of Kykkos is also called "stavropegic", because at its foundations was placed a Cross, which makes the monastery independent of the local diocesan government and subordinated directly to the patriarch.

The monastery celebrates twice a year, at the Assumption of the Virgin Mary on August 15 and at the Birth of the Virgin Mary on September 8.
