Housed in a renovated building, the Municipal Folk Art Museum was founded in 1985, and showcases collections of Cypriot folk art from the 19th and 20th centuries, with over 500 exhibits displayed across six rooms.
The collection covers art, culture, traditions, society, trade and other elements of traditional Cypriot life, and includes interesting urban attire, national costumes, furniture, country tools, wood carvings, embroidery and jewellery.
In 1988 the museum was recognised with the ‘Europa Nostra’ award.
