Review:
The former Crusader stronghold of the Kolossi village, Kolossi Castle is one of the most visited attractions by tourists in Cyprus. Having completed construction in 1454, the original castle dates back to the Frankish military in 1210. The castle held great strategic importance during the Middle Ages and housed one of Cyprus’ main exports - sugar from the local sugarcane.
Be sure to get an informed guide to show you around so you won't miss important historical aspects such as the coat-of-arms of the Commander of Kolossi carved into the castle’s walls. Having a guide will also ensure you learn interesting facts about the castle’s history such as when it was taken by the Knights Templar in 1306.
