Place of memory

The Barn at Liopetri

We include the barn as a specific rural memorial to the armed phase of the anti-colonial struggle.

2 September 1958

A battle took place here between four members of EOKA and British forces.

It is important to connect the story not only with heroic memory but also with the question of the cost of armed resistance for individuals and local communities.

At the site we focus on specific reference points: the four names, the date of the battle, traces of fighting and the plan of the barn.
