Super interesting. A step back in time, to the time of knights and kings. It deserves time to see it at leisure, in all its winding nooks and crannies, to understand and imagine the rich history. Very rich in Byzantine and Latin exhibits, in old Christian objects and medieval tombstones.

Fascinating place,we visited on a Sunday when Limassol was quiet and we went to pay but where told it was free of charge that day. Spent around an hour looking at all artefacts found close by from excavation or replicas that depict things from the time. Really fascinating to see everything from weapons to coins to plates. Well worth a look if you're in Limassol old town.

Tickets are cheap $4.50, its in a cool area of town. Worth a stop by even for 30 mins, the castle is out of the heat and is interesting historically.
I would not recommend making a day out of it, but the area is great, price cheap, and history interesting.

The Castle and Church has an amazing history and a brilliant museum. All the artifacts are beautifully displayed. The Castle is in the old port of Limassol and is definitely worth a visit. The surrounding old town has lots of beautiful architecture with lovely restaurants.

Small but interesting place, where Richard the Lionheart married Berengaria and crowned her Queen of England in 1191 apparently (the only British royal wedding taking place abroad so far).
The entrance fee is 4,5 euros I believe and it’s worth it. Not really for the views after climbing to the top, but mainly for the little exposition they have going on.
Not wheelchair accessible.
Highly recommended, you’ll spend maybe 20 minutes here.

Very small and mostly stones. Not a lot of medieval things. Not worth the 4.5€. my friend slipped the stairs and hurt herself. Be careful

Great experience and not so crowded, only flaw is the lack of some kind of AC inside, it can get really hot.
