More history
The city of Famagusta is claimed to be one of the finest examples of
medieaval architecture in the Eastern Mediterranean and in its present state of
preservation, is equal to that of the old cities of Carcassone or Ragusa - Famagusta Hotels.
Much of the history of the town is obscure as there are
no written records and our only source of materials from travellers' accounts
of merchants passing through - Famagusta Hotels.
Some historians declare that it was founded by
King Ptolemy Philadelphus of Egypt in 285 B.C. By the year 1300 A.D. the town
was one of the principal markets of the Eastern Mediterranean, the rendezvous of
rich merchants and the headquarters of many Christian religious orders as
revealed by numerous churches of various denominations still to be seen in the
town today. This was the time of the Crusades and when the rich Lusignan family
ruled Cyprus, and hence the period 1200 to 1498 in Cyprus history is called the
Lusignan dynasty. Famagusta was protected by ramparts which encircle the town
and the citadel castle guarding the harbour, the best in Cyprus. This citadel or
Othello's tower is the first main focus of attention for visitors.
