Cyprus Museum of Natural History

A fascinating natural history museum housed within the grounds of the Carlsberg brewery in Latsia, just outside central Nicosia. Features extensive collections of stuffed animals, fossils, minerals, insects, and marine life from Cyprus and around the world. The surrounding gardens are home to live peacocks, pelicans, macaws, and a dinosaur sculpture trail, making it a memorable outing for curious children. Open Monday to Friday by appointment; primarily caters to school groups but welcomes families.
