Description

 

Prologue

In these pages the reader will discover the history of Famagusta Gate,

one of the three gates of the Venetian walls of Nicosia.

It is an account written by people who love the Gate and who have

restored it for the sake of their town, transforming this old fortress

into a modern cultural centre whose fame has gone beyond the

boundaries of Cyprus.

This book is dedicated to those who have loved the gate, to those who

have worked hard to revive it, and to those who have contributed

financially towards the realisation of the whole project. It is also

dedicated to those who recognise its historical value and its cultural

contribution to the everyday life of Nicosia, as well as to Johnson Wax

for covering the expenses of this publication.

The Nicosia Municipality wishes to express to them all its warm thanks

and feels proud that the gate exists today as evidence of the history of

the town and as a cultural bastion in this divided capital of Cyprus.

Chairman of the Executive Committee

Old Nicosia Association.
