Historical museum

Paralimni Municipal Museum of National History

We include this regional museum so that the history of the eastern part of the island is not lost between Nicosia and Paphos.

1821–1974

The exhibition covers key national events of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and the way they are remembered locally.

A regional museum shows especially well how the same larger history is preserved in family photographs, school objects and local monuments.

At the museum we focus on specific reference points: the earliest date, local names, a flag or emblem and a map of the district.
