Restoration of Saint Paraskevi Church in Kato Varosha Completed

The Bi-communal Technical Committee for Cultural Heritage has completed the restoration of the Saint (Ayia) Paraskevi church in the illegally occupied Kato Varosha, Famagusta. Funded by the European Union and executed by the United Nations Development Project, the project preserves a site built over five phases from the 16th to 20th centuries, culminating in a neoclassical bell tower. A celebratory event marked the church’s return to its historical splendor, highlighting its value as a Cypriot cultural treasure.
