Limassol City, Cyprus skyline: the 13 most iconic buildings and best views in Limassol City

A very nice place to visit preferrably after 5 pm in summer. Many options for dining, drinks and coffee. Adjacent is the old port as well. Some shopping storesare in back streets.

Limassol Marina is a great place to hang out and pretend to be a member of the Uber rich!! The yachts on show are amazing. Prices in the cafes are the same as anywhere else but it does feel that little big more special...highly recommend lunch here..

Very beautiful marina in Limassol. With plenty restaurants and coffee shops, it's definitely a nice place to visit and spend relaxing time with fiends and family. I'd recommend visiting this place if you are in Limassol ⛵💦

Very nice - for a stroll during the day or for dinner. There are many options for dining, drinks and coffee. Adjacent is the old port as well. Some shopping in back streets.

Lovely place , we traveled on the local bus from paphos for only 5 euros each way it took just over a hour and was really worth the visit beautiful little old town .

Amazing place to walk with a lot of coffee shops, restaurants & shops. Very close to Limassol castle, Agia Napa Church and old town.

The fabulous Marina Breeze at Limassol Marina was a meal to remember. Situated alongside the marina you can arrive by boat and moor up alongside or arrive in the normal manner on foot. This was the best meal of our holiday. Great service, classic and modern cocktails, and superb food together with an affordable wine list including local wines. They even give you bread to feed the fish in the harbour. A lovely unforgettable evening.

This place is a tresure trove of the past. Completley free way to while away hours and hours. I could look at this ancient art work and property for a lifetime . Theres soo much to see. The layout od a little dated and the placards that indicate what ever the items are leave a lot to be desired. The whole collection needs geo tagging and barcoding so we can see and read where what and how these items where used and by who. Just a thought. Great job limasol and cyprus though. I think its time you got back all the Cyprus antiquities.

I am surprised one review called it 'modest'. This is a pretty good archaeological museum covering all the main phases from archaic to the early period of Christianisation. Labelling could be a bit better but don't miss it!

The first impression I had was that it was free of charge when we visited, maybe because it was out of season. It is a small museum, but well maintained. The garden in front was beautiful, and there is good access for people with disabilities. Most of the artefacts were pottery. It was interesting to see so many small artefacts from Egypt, like scarabs and julery. The informational signs were detailed and you can learn a lot about the region.

Free entry, large exhibition & friendly staff. Well kept grounds are easy to access, including facilities for wheelchairs like lift, wc & ramps.

I don't get ppl who come only to lay lazy and take subaths. It's so interesting to look back at the ancient cultural background of Cyprus. The only thing missing is the earphones with the digital guide. The museum is quite small but charming let alone to say it's free of charge.

Super interesting museum with artifacts ranging from the Neolithic until the early Christian period. Staff was very nice, welcoming, and fluent in English for any tourists who do not speak Greek. Definitely worth a visit!

Small museum, but rich in artefacts. There was a special exhibition about the ancient town of Amathus, the ruins of which are found near Limassol. The exhibition was very interesting, with many explanations in English and Greek language about the objects and about the history of the ancient Amathus.

As a "petrol head", I must say this was a magnificent experience visiting this place! It's an exciting collection of cars.But it's not just about the cars. There are many industrial engines, tractors, retro communication devices, heritage racing items, even sawing machines... The only negative is that there's no Aircon inside. That aside it's worth the sweat! The lady at the reception was very kind too!

Amazing collection of cars! Spent about an hour here and the staff were very friendly, offering us drinks on the way out. Definitely worth visiting if staying near Limassol and have any interest in old and rare cars.

It was wonderful! The host was so sweet! She offered us lemonade, water, tea and coffee. Inside the museum there isn't Aircon! The host told us that if we need a break we can come back to the entrance (there I air-conditioning their) and drink something. This is an amazing museum! Really recommend it!

Fabulous collection. Lots of well preserved cars that can all still be driven A bit crowded in. But I hear they are looking for bigger premises as the collection is growing. Very well recommended

One of a kind, pure enjoy for a minimum hour. Many displays of retro parts, many rare cars and other vehicles.

The most interesting place in Limassol. There are many rare exhibits. If you like cars, you definitely need to visit here.

I visited the museum with my two best friends — all of us passionate about cars, and one of us especially into Formula 1 and racing. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and warm. One staff member was especially thrilled to see three young women so enthusiastic about cars and racing. She shared with us that the owner of the museum was actually a racer himself, which was such a cool and surprising detail! The tour itself was fantastic and took longer than we expected — in the best way possible. We were completely immersed in the experience. After the tour, we headed to the café to enjoy our complimentary drinks (included with the ticket). The same staff member came over again and, to our amazement, introduced us to the owner — the racer she had mentioned earlier! He was so kind and excited to meet us. He even showed us his personal photos and trophies and gifted us small presents at the end of our visit. It was truly a special and inspiring experience. Highly recommend this place to anyone who loves cars, racing, or just a genuinely memorable outing.

I've been to several escape rooms; honestly, this was the worst one yet. Even though the puzzles were quite good and well done, the atmosphere and fun were utterly ruined by the millions of unwanted clues from the staff. There should be a button for asking for clues. Another disappointment was the decorations, but the most confusing were elements that did nothing—a key or a padlock leading to nothing.

We reserved a room for 12:50, arrived early, and were told to wait until 13:30. While we didn’t mind, it would’ve been nice to know in advance. The staff were polite, but the experience playing La Casa de Papel was very disappointing. We spent so much time searching for a green key,that they told us , only to be told later that it was lost by a previous kids party. This completely ruined the final stage of the game, leaving us frustrated and upset, as it’s the whole point of an escape game.

Hello, I’m reaching out as a client regarding my experience today. Our session was supposed to start at 12:50, but there was a delay, and it didn’t begin on time. On top of that, the game had to be paused because they lost the key which further disrupted our experience.

Everything was as it should be the kids had fun. I'd definitely choose it to have a kids party. One star down for no free parking space near by.

We had an unforgettable experience at ESCAPE! From the moment we stepped in, the immersive set design transported us into a different world. The attention to detail was impeccable, making every element of the room feel authentic and engaging. The puzzles were incredibly well thought out, offering a perfect blend of challenge and fun. Each puzzle was unique and required a mix of logic, creativity, and teamwork, keeping us all on our toes and fully invested in the game. The staff were fantastic—enthusiastic, supportive, and clearly passionate about what they do. They provided hints just when we needed them, ensuring we stayed on track without giving away too much. Overall, ESCAPE is a top-notch escape room experience. Whether you're an escape room novice or a seasoned enthusiast, this place is a must-visit. We can't wait to come back and try another room. Highly recommended!

Amazing experience suggesting it for both adults and kids !

Amazing for adults or kids, they have various levels of difficulty so there's a room for everybody.

A rather small place, but with some interesting exhibits about Cypriot clothing and ways of life. There is not much in terms of explanation of the exhibits or historical background. It's nice for a quick glimpse at the recent past, and not too expensive (2€ at the time of writing this).

(Translated by Google) Expensive museum for what it is (we paid 10th for the 5 of us, including 3 children) just 6 rooms of 12m2, we did the tour in 10 minutes... (Original) Musée cher pour ce que c'est ( on a payé 10e pour nous 5, dont 3 enfants) juste 6 pieces de 12m2 , on a fait le tour en 10 min...

(Translated by Google) A small museum with very ancient display cases. You have to knock hard to be opened. (Original) Маленький музей с очень древними витринами. Нужно хорошо стучаться, чтобы вам открыли

Small but interesting place, where Richard the Lionheart married Berengaria and crowned her Queen of England in 1191 apparently (the only British royal wedding taking place abroad so far). The entrance fee is 4,5 euros I believe and it’s worth it. Not really for the views after climbing to the top, but mainly for the little exposition they have going on. Not wheelchair accessible. Highly recommended, you’ll spend maybe 20 minutes here.

A bit less than what I would expect considering the history behind the place, the ticket cost 4.5€. You can walk around it and inside in 3/4 different levels with a bunch of stuff showing from different époques. Would recommend to go early in the day and be careful with hours, should be open from 9 to 17 but I found it close at 16:30 once. It takes 20/30 min. No wheelchair accessible.

Limassol Medieval Castle was built in the 13th century on the site of an earlier Byzantine castle. It is the town's most popular attraction because according to fame the castle stands on the site where Richard the Lionheart married Berengaria of Navarre and crowned her Queen of England in 1191. Cells in the basement were used as prison until 1950. I’ve enjoyed the visit.

Fascinating place,we visited on a Sunday when Limassol was quiet and we went to pay but where told it was free of charge that day. Spent around an hour looking at all artefacts found close by from excavation or replicas that depict things from the time. Really fascinating to see everything from weapons to coins to plates. Well worth a look if you're in Limassol old town.

The Castle and Church has an amazing history and a brilliant museum. All the artifacts are beautifully displayed. The Castle is in the old port of Limassol and is definitely worth a visit. The surrounding old town has lots of beautiful architecture with lovely restaurants.

Lemesos is a beautifully preserved castle in the heart of Old Town. The interior is a fascinating museum with interesting relics, which are well described in both English and Greek. The cost of entry is cheap and it took us about 30 minutes or so to tour the whole site.

Tickets are cheap $4.50, its in a cool area of town. Worth a stop by even for 30 mins, the castle is out of the heat and is interesting historically. I would not recommend making a day out of it, but the area is great, price cheap, and history interesting.

We had an excellent bash here. Bride and groom were very happy with the service

Nice but difficult to get a good picture. Was closed when we visited.

The church in Ayia Napa, Cyprus, is a typical representation of religious architecture. It exudes a sense of tranquility and spiritual reflection, showcasing the cultural and historical significance of the area. However, it's notable that recent restrictions have been imposed, prohibiting access to the church square from the main entrance. This precautionary measure may detract slightly from the overall experience for some visitors, yet it underscores the importance of preserving the sanctity of the church grounds. Despite this restriction, the church remains a serene place for contemplation and connection with one's faith amidst the bustling atmosphere of Ayia Napa.

Easy to access and free to enter. Beautiful outside and more impressive insdie.

Beautiful chapel we walked in and it is absolutely stunning. There was a service going on and it was just outstanding. It’s worth the stop when you are in the area. A step into the past

Beautiful church. Limassol’s Ayiou Andreou Street stretches along the towns sea front, providing a pleasurable walk along the ‘Molos’ area; an eye catching seaside park that stretches from the old port to the Limassol Zoo with direct access to the numerous restaurants, shops and cafes available for down time. The Limassol landmark built at the end of the 19th century, upon the ruins of an older Byzantine church. Although it carries the same name as the busiest and most well-known tourist districts of the island (Ayia Napa), the church has no relation to the town of Ayia Napa itself.

The Cathedral was beautiful to look at from the outside and had a nice area outside with mint and other plants. Inside of the Church was very ornate and had some very impressive painting on some if the walls and ceiling. Not 5 star because at the time couldn't go very far inside the Church, Just the entry hall.

Is it a real museum or just a nice prank?

"A small exhibition, but it was truly engaging for my child to explore the mechanisms. Most importantly, everything was touchable, a rarity to find in Cyprus. I write in the past tense because when we recently visited with friends, the entire exhibition was obstructed by boxes and chairs. It's unclear what has happened to the museum, and it's regrettable that it's currently not operational."

Sadly it's just a room with the equipment, they need to to put up some of signage explaining the processes...

Good

Very nice

(Translated by Google) It was a fascinating walk 😊 This is a former carob processing plant. It's interesting to take a walk and look at the details and processing mechanism. The place deserves attention, especially if you read its history in advance. Carob Mill Museum in Limassol or Carob Mill museum (full literal name - Carob Mill Museum) is a museum that houses equipment from the 1900s that was once used to process the fruits of carob trees. At that time, carob fruits were one of the main products used for export by Cyprus. Carob was called “Black Gold” because it was highly valued not only in Cyprus, but also beyond its borders. The carob trade was transformed in 1911 when steamships were loaded with the fruit and processed carobs for export to England. Before this, trade was generally limited to the Mediterranean basin using sailing ships. As a result, Lanitis Ltd became the largest processor and exporter of “Black Gold” on the island of Cyprus. The real carob museum is located in one of the workshops of the old factory of the Lanitis family company. Free admission. (Original) Увлекательная прогулка получилась 😊 Это бывший завод переработки рожкового дерева . Интересно прогуляться рассмотреть детали и механизм переработки . Место заслуживает внимания , особенно если заранее прочесть его историю . Музей рожкового дерева в Лимассоле или музей Кэроб Милл (Carob Mill museum) полное дословное название - музей мельницы рожкового дерева - музей, в котором находится оборудование 1900-х годов, некогда использовавшееся для обработки плодов рожковых деревьев. В те времена плоды рожковых деревьев были одним из основных продуктов, использовавшихся Кипром на экспорт. Рожковое дерево называли «Черное золото», поскольку оно высоко ценилось не только на Кипре, но и за его пределами. Торговля плодами рожковых деревьев была преобразована в 1911 году, когда пароходы были загружены плодами и переработанными кэробами для экспорта в Англию. До этого торговля в целом ограничивалась бассейном Средиземного моря с использованием парусных судов. В результате Ланитис Лтд стала крупнейшим на острове Кипр переработчиком и экспортером «Черного золота». Настоящий музей рожкового дерева расположен в одном из цехов старой фабрики компании семьи Ланитис. Вход свободный.

A beautiful Catholic Church with very welcoming people. It's the only Catholic Church in Limassol and has a variety of masses to serve the different needs of expats. I was lucky to find it

Beautiful church in the heart of Limassol. On a short holiday in Cyprus and desired to go to Mass on Sunday. 18.30 hrs mass was in English as unfortunately I do not understand Greek. Many Philippines helping and singing during the mass which I liked very much because they have a big heart, are all helpful and greet you as a true friend. One annoying action came from a begger that entered the church before, during and after mass asking for money in Greek. I found it seriously impossible to pray and very strange that everyone ignored him as if he was not there.. my blood was boiling as he was very persistent, he asked me 3 times for money and when I appologised for not understanding Greek he spoke in English and asked me for 50 cents. I was afraid for the safety of everyone inside the church as he kept walking up and down the isle. I cannot understand how there is no type of security service. There was a short scary moment that luckily the priest managed to handle just with a nod of the head and eye contact but it surely knocked my spiritual concentration. Probably it was just a fluke incident but this experience dented my near perfect experience at St Catherine's church here in Limassol.

St. Catherine’s Catholic Church in Limassol is a magnificent blend of history, architecture, and spirituality. Built between 1872 and 1879, this church was designed by the Italian Franciscan architect Francesco da Monghidoro and stands as a testament to Limassol’s rich cultural heritage. Its Baroque-inspired interior is breathtaking, with intricate details and an 80-square-meter Byzantine fresco added in 1979 that depicts saints such as St. Francis of Assisi, St. Catherine, and the Virgin Mary. The church’s historical significance is deeply rooted in the Franciscan presence in Cyprus, which dates back to the 13th century, and its connection to the local community. The adjacent Franciscan monastery continues to serve as a gathering place for events, fostering a sense of unity and tradition. Whether you’re visiting for religious reasons or simply to admire its architectural beauty, St. Catherine’s Catholic Church offers a peaceful and awe-inspiring experience. It’s a must-visit for anyone exploring Limassol’s spiritual and cultural landmarks.

This Catholic Church in Limassol, Cyprus is amazing! I attended my usual Sunday Mass here (as I was on holiday) and the whole atmosphere and mass was truly outstanding. From the organ playing, to the priest and the kind church workers. It was lovely to see a whole community gathered together to celebrate mass. The church is clearly well kept and cared for. Highly recommend this Catholic Church!

Thank you to Fr. Andrew and the other priests for their warm welcome. Church was beautifully decorated for Christmas. It’s wonderful the work done for the community. Thank you

Great franciscan church, visit and pray :)

Good place for attending mass.

A place you must visit is the water museum. With a full tour and explanation of the history of water in the city of Limassol. For those who want to learn more about the history of Cyprus

Phone in advance and they will open up on weekdays. Free.

We came from another city to visit the Water Museum. Google shows it open until 2 PM, but when we arrived at 12:30 the door said to call before 1 PM — and no one answered the phone. Very disappointing, especially for my son.

Great mino museum with history

Love the place

(Translated by Google) An interesting museum where you can see, among others, Old water meters: I didn't know such a thing existed. Admission was free. (Original) Ciekawe muzeum w którym można zobaczyć m. In. Stare wodomierze: nie wiedziałem że takie coś istniało. Wstęp był bezpłatny.

(Translated by Google) I enjoy jogging here. The running routes are varied and lead through shady wooded areas as well as open meadows. There are also several drinking water stations, which is very convenient for longer runs. For me, this park is the perfect place to stay fit while enjoying nature. (Original) Ich genieße es, hier joggen zu gehen. Die Laufstrecken sind abwechslungsreich und führen durch schattige Waldgebiete sowie offene Wiesen. Es gibt auch mehrere Trinkwasserstationen, was bei längeren Läufen sehr praktisch ist. Für mich ist dieser Park der perfekte Ort, um fit zu bleiben und gleichzeitig die Natur zu genießen.

A must visit museum. Don’t miss out on this well organised museum with its beautiful and historical theatrical costume displays and many more to see. Drawbacks are firstly there is no coffee shop to grab a bite or a bottle of water and secondly only cash payments are accepted.

Its an ok place to have a small event. Central location. Not very clean in my opinion and equipment can be renewed as some key things as display boards are extremely old!

In this place is the Cyprus Theatre Museum. I recommend visit it. The exhibition is very good. The thematic section of the museum are : the history, the contributors, the performance.

Nice, but not impressed.

The Cyprus Theatre Museum is also known by the name Municipal Cultural Centre Panos Solomonidis derived from the namesake business man who donated this place to Limassol’s municipality for cultural purposes.

A small but wonderfully kept museum. Lots of beautiful costumes and even some costumes to try on - a wonderful place to spend an hour.

Small space for events with no amenities to offer
