Pierides Museum

The Pierides-Marfin Laiki Bank Museum could be charactrised as one of the most important museums in Cyprus since its archaeological collection comprises the most complete and significant presentation of Cypriot culture throughout the centuries.

The archaeological collection is hosted at the Pierides Family house in Larnaca, a building dated in 1825, and covers all main periodes of Cypriot history and prehistory.

The visitor can watch the panorama of 9000 years of Cypriot civilisation, starting from the Neolitic period, the Bronze Age, the Geometric, the Archaic, the Hellenistic, the Roman, and Byzantine-Medieval era. Apart from the archaeological collection, the Museum houses an exemplary collection of old maps of Cyprus and Eastern Mediterranean as well as a marvelous collection of Hellenistic and Roman glass vases. At the yard of the Museum, one can see, the open air sculpture collection by Cypriot and Greek artists.
