In the centre of Ataturk square is the Venetian Column. This was moved from its original spot in 1489 from Salamis to Nicosia as a tribute to Venetian rule in Cyprus. Consequently, the column is frequently and incorrectly attributed to the Venetians. On top of the granite column was the lion of St Mark, at the bottom, the coats of arms of noble Venation families. The Ottomans removed the lion and toppled the column in 1570 and left it in the courtyard of the Sarayonu Mosque. In 1915, while at war with the Ottoman empire, the column was re-erected by the British. They replaced the lost St Mark lion with a bronze orb, and decorated the plinth with the dates of the demolishing and re-erection,...

Atatürk Meydanı’ndaki Venedik Sütunu (Dikilitaş) Venedikliler tarafından 1550’de dikilmiştir. Eskiden üzerinde St. Mark aslanı bulunuyordu. Osmanlılar sütunu kaldırarak Sarayönü Camisinin avlusuna koymuşlardır. İngilizler 1915 yılında, 6 m yüksekliğindeki sütunu şimdiki yerine yerleştirmişlerdir. Tek kurşuni renkte bir granit olan sütunun, Salamis’teki bir mabetten getirildiği sanılmaktadır. Sütunun alt tarafında 6 İtalyan ailesinin armaları bulunmaktadır. Sütunun üzerindeki bakır küre sonradan ilave edilmiştir. Atatürk Meydanının batısındaki binalar (Devlet Daireleri) 1900’lerin ilk yıllarında İngiliz Koloni devrinde inşa edildiklerinden özel bir görünüme sahiptirler. Binaların doğuya bakan yönünde bir çeşme vardır. Ayrıca Kraliçe Elizabet’in 1953 yılında tahta çıkması nedeniyle inşa edilen bir platform bulunmaktadır. Üzerinde İngiltere’nin arması bulunan bu platformdan, İngiliz valisi, Kraliçe’nin tahta çıktığını...

Ataturk square with a Venetian column placed at a very strategic location of the Walled city of Nicosia northern side of Cyprus is very unique. The 1489 column moved from Salamis to here is a historic landmark for the city and it's people. From the square you can access all the sections of the...

Column erected by Venetians during 16th century. Most probably must have had San Marco Lion (Leone di San Marco) on the top. Now there is only a bronze sphere

A column erected by the Venetians in the middle of Ataturk Square. Er, that's it. Nothing to write home about.

Früher beherrschte Venedig die Insel Zypern: damals stand oben auch ein Löwe. Heute verrät uns nichts mehr an dieser Säule über jene Zeit der venezianischen Geschichte - heute ist es ein schöner, idyllischer Platz mit einer Säule nahe dem Kyrenia Tor, durch das wir hierher gekommen sind.
