Description
Venetian Walls – Nicosia’s Ancient Fortification Ring
Encircling the old city, the Venetian Walls of Nicosia date back to the 16th century, when the Republic of Venice fortified the city against invasion. With 11 bastions and a moat that now hosts gardens and parks, the walls are a striking sight.
You can walk along parts of the walls or admire the dramatic Paphos Gate and other historic entrances that once guarded the capital.
They’re more than stone—they’re a reminder of how Nicosia has stood strong through centuries of change.
