Review:
Situated right in the heart of the historical city, Limassol Castle is believed to have been originally built in 1193. However, the current structure was rebuilt in the 19th century under the rule of the Turks. Highlights of the castle include the 2-m-thick walls and the special ground floor prison cells, which were in active use until 1950. However, the building is also home to the Cyprus Medieval Museum, which boasts displays following the evolution of Cyprus between the 3rd century and the 18th century. A wide range of artifacts are displayed, including medieval pottery, coins, and various weapons.
