Small and old museum....better things to do rather than visit the Pierides museum. If ur a freak museum although u can pay a visit..there are some interesting historical artifacts..
Questo museo si trova vicino al centro informazioni x turisti nella via dei negozi, la parallela alla passeggiata Finikoudi.In esso puoi vedere un sacco di oggetti dei 9000 anni di storia di cipro.E' diviso in stanze a seconda dei periodi e mi sembra che fossero 5 + una dove si possono acquistare dei ricordi.Gli oggetti nelle vetrine sono perfettamente conservati; vasi, portaprofumi, statuette, ecc.Ci sono anche oggetti sia ben conservato che meno al di fuori della vetrine.Puoi anche vedere una stanza con mappe europee, asiatiche, africane dove e' rappresentato Cipro e altre dell'isola stessa.In un angolo ci sono degli arazzi, della armi, dei libri e ormanenti in seta + dei divabi.La parte superiore e' abitata perche' e' un museo privato.Ho pagato 3 euro.Ho fotografato tranquillamente.
We went to this museum before to go in airport , It was reveled a nice visit ,All greek statu , and the history of the island , it's not so bigger but very interesting place .Cheeper tickets to entry .
I wouldn't fly to Cyprus just to see the Pierides museum, but if you're anywhere near Larnaca you should definitely go. The national museum in Nicosia has a better collection, but Pierides definitely ranks second. The history of the family and their museum alone is worth it. The strong sides are the prehistoric collection, the Byzantine stoneware (a/k/a pots and pans), and the maps of Cyprus. The latter contains some pretty rare pieces (originals by Mercator and Ortelius), but suffers from poor labeling. Read the fine print on the maps themselves.
The museum is located in the heart of Larnaca town. The museum is flourishing with medieval pottery and embroidery, very quiet and a large outdoor exhibition area as well.The management is very informative and pleasant to have around. As a local i have visited the museum numerous time, the symbolic entrance fee is no problem and there is a large collection of high quality replicas and souvenirs available for sale.
Here you can see a lot of exhibits, discovered in the area, dating back to ancient times, exposed in a very professional manner.Very interesting are the maps of Cyprus, several hundred years old.
Lovely little museum - the building itself is one of my favourite Cypriot style buildings! It houses some lovely stuff - just enough to keep your interested and not too much that you get bored - so a good filler if you have an hour or so spare - but not perhaps a destination museum!
Worth a quick visit. Display could be more inventive. Many object are the same and young children soon become bored. A good place to escape the sun
Был на специальной выставке, посвящённой парому "Зенобия". Залы небольшие, но экспозиция подобрана со вкусом. В основном музее - ещё более скромно.
I liked everything, especially the little statuettes dating from a long time before Christ. There is also a collection of maps which are very illustratives
