The Leventis Municipal Museum of Nicosia is an award-winning history museum and popular tourist-attraction located in old town Nicosia. This excellent museum chronologically illustrates the history of Cyprus and Nicosia from the Chalcolithic period, or Copper Age (3500-2500 BC), through the ancient and medieval periods, to the end of British rule in 1960.
Venetian Bridges
The Republic of Venice dominated much of the eastern Mediterranean during the middle ages (AD 1489-1570). During this period, the Venetians greatly invested in improving the island of Cyprus' infrastructure to best exploit its many resources - most notably ore from the mines of the Troodos mountains. Among these improvements, the Venetians constructed many distinctive stone bridges along roads and trails across the island.
