Lusignan House — Attraction in Lefkoşa Türk Belediyesi

This mansion dates from the 15th century, and is a well preserved example of Lusignan architecture. Its Gothic arched main entrance and the Lusignan coats of arms above it are magnificent. During the Ottoman period, decorated wooden ceilings were added. The mansion has a typical inner courtyard of the period. It is two storied, and built from cut stone. Additions during the Ottoman period were made from lath and plaster. The upstairs rooms and wooden veranda are reached are reached from the ground floor round-stone pillared veranda by stone stairs. On the east side of the rectangular courtyard are the remains of stone arches. These have been filled in, which lead us to believe that the building was once extended in...

First of all, If you are a museum enthusiast like me, this is a "must visit" place for you then. This is a 2 floor building whose first floor resemles Lusignan architecture and 2nd floor resembling Ottoman architecture. There are depictions of different eras of Cyprus on the garden walls. Also inside the rooms of this house there are exhibitions of daily life gear like dresses, tables, forks, chairs etc belonging to different eras in Cyprus....

Really nice museum with friendly personnel. There's one room downstairs and more rooms upstairs, apart from that, walking around in the garden is also such a pleasure! You will find clean toilet and good introduction of the exhibitions here.

I like the way they tell the story about Lusignan life and some interesting items they display. I'm very glad I visited this museum!

P.s. The opening hour is until 3:30pm. Ticket price...
