Housed in a beautifully restored 19th-century mansion in the old city, the Leventis Municipal Museum of Nicosia offers a chronological journey through the capital's history from the Chalcolithic period to the present. Visitors explore three floors of exhibits, including ancient pottery, Byzantine icons, Ottoman-era costumes, and a detailed model of 16th-century Nicosia.
