A Medieval castle in excellent condition not far from an amphitheatre and other excavations in the Kurion area.

The Kolossi Castle was built in the 13th century and then reconstructed in the 15th century. When visiting the Castle inside you can reach the top and get stunning views! If visiting the area is worth combining with visiting the Ancient Kourion which is located a mere 10 minute drive!

Small but interesting castle with views out over the farmers fields. Worth visiting in the same trip as Kourion as they are quite close.

Built in the 13th century and rebuilt in its present form in the 15th century.It served as the Grand Commandery of the Knights of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem and in the 14th century came under the domain of the Knights Templar. During their stay in Cyprus, the Knights produced and exported a sweet wine, which became known as the ‘vin de Commanderie’. Today, Commandaria wine is one of the island’s traditional wines and one of the oldest named wines in the world.
