Larnaca Castle, located in the coastal city of Larnaca, Cyprus, is a historic fortress that dates back to the Middle Ages. Originally constructed during the Byzantine era, the castle has undergone several modifications over the centuries under various rulers, including the Lusignans, Venetians, Ottomans, and British. The castle was primarily built to protect the harbor and the town from potential invaders. Today, it houses a small museum that displays artifacts from different periods of Cypriot history, offering visitors a glimpse into the island's rich cultural heritage.
