Lemona (Greek: Λεμώνα) is a village in the Paphos District of Cyprus, located about 25 km northeast of the town of Paphos and 7 km west of Agios Fotios. It may have taken its name at old times from many stagnant waters (Greek: λιμιώνας) that existed in the area or from many lemon trees in the area (Greek: λεμονιές). The main occupation of the former inhabitants was agriculture. The village school closed in 1987.
