St. Dimitrius Lakko Skete is a dependency of the St. Paul's Monastery on Mount Athos. The skete was founded in the eighteenth century and was initially occupied by Serbian monks. Later, the skete was populated by monks from Moldovia.

The main temple of the skete was built in 1899 and is dedicated to St. Dimitrius.

The skete is now occupied by Romanian monks who live in its twenty cells.
