Kyrenia Castle was originally built in the 7th century by the Byzantines to protect the town from Arab raids. It was extended by the Lusignan’s and the round tower was built around 1300 using recycled Roman stones and was joined to other round towers by a curtain wall. The Venetians widened the original Byzantine walls making the Lusignan fortification largely redundant. The Lusignan walls gradually fell down, and by 1600 the Ottomans were so established they deemed it safe to build houses outside the walls. The round tower stood derelict for several hundred years becoming a roofless shell, until in 1987, a local businessman received permission to restore it. A fibre glass dome was added, a wooden gallery erected, and during excavation work a rough “shelf” was revealed. This and the floor were covered in natural stone flags. Since 1988, it's been open as a gift shop and art gallery displaying works by local painters. Although this round tower is the best preserved, there are remnants of others you can see. One is on the street leading from the Bandabuliya towards the harbour, and the another overlooks the harbour itself.

Lovely and eclectic art market with a medieval feel. Stop by for a conversation with a Ukrainian lady who has been in Cyprus for 26 years.

A historic tower worth to visit inside. Good tiny selection of souvenirs with reasonable prices. A nice lady helps there and she also rescues cats around. You may meet a noble looking one who is getting really old.

Perfect place to buy stylish handmade souvenirs at the reasonable price! Highly recommended!

Quite Quite a historical place

Buz gibi bir ingiliz lady oturmuş, internette haber izliyor. Burası KKTC kültür bakanlığımıza bağlı değil sanırım. İçeridekilerin değeri, size verilen degerle doğru orantılıdır.
