The Panagia-Katakekrymeni-Portokalousa (Greek: Παναγία Κατακεκρυμμένη – Πορτοκαλούσα Άργους, lit. 'Our Hidden Lady the Orange-Bearer of Argos') is a former Greek Orthodox monastery and now church, located in Argos on the slopes of Mount Larissa, in the Peloponnese region of Greece.
Its official title is the Monastery of the Entry of the Most Holy Theotokos into the Temple, and it derives its popular name from the secreting of an ancient icon of Panagia (Virgin Mary) in a cave below the church, hidden by the branches of orange trees. The church is also known as the Sacred Church of the Eisodia of the Theotokos-Panagia Portokalousa, Argos. At various times since the 10th century, the structure has been used as a monastery, nunnery, and as a church.
