Lystra () was a city in central Anatolia, now part of present-day Turkey. It is mentioned five times in the New Testament.〔Acts 14.6, 8, 21, 16.1, and 2 Timothy 3.11〕 Lystra was visited several times by the Apostle Paul, along with Barnabas or Silas. There Paul met a young disciple, Timothy.
==Location==
The site of Lystra is believed to be located south of the city of Konya (Iconium in the New Testament), north of the village of Hatunsaray and some north of a small town called Akoren. A small museum within the village of Hatunsaray displays artifacts from ancient Lystra.
Lystra is the ancient name of the village visited by the Apostle Paul. There is a present-day village called "Klistra" near Gökyurt, a village of the Meram district of Konya province.〔()〕 Ancient ruins can be seen near Klistra, including a church with a big cross marked on the wall, a winery, house-like buildings, and the ruins of a city located over the top of a hill which is locally called "Alusumas", where another ruined church ruin can be seen. According to local people, the less-visible city was constructed over the hill to hide from enemies of ancient Anatolia. This site is still awaiting excavation.
Lystra is located on the ancient Persian Royal Road.
