Larnaca District Archaeological Museum

Larnaca District Archaeological Museum was opened in 1969. The Museum originally consisted of two exhibition rooms. In 1987 and 1988 the Museum was enriched with new rooms and finds. Today it consists of four galleries where the disposition of objects follows a chronological succession, so that the visitor may have a more complete picture of the historical development of the city of Kition and the District of Larnaca in general. In the entrance hall of the Museum two large limestone sarcophagi are exhibited with anthropomorphic lids, male and female. These are rare 6th-5th century B.C. works.
