      Small museum in the beautiful old section of Nicosia, with just enough on display to keep an child interested and not too much to be overwhelming. Includes clothes, furniture, musical instruments, photographs and much more. My only criticism is that some items lacked explanatory labels; we were left debating the purpose of several inexplicable things. Good little shop at entrance and shaded tables outside for trying some Cypriot drinks and snacks. Close to other museums.

      If you are in the old town of Nicosia don't miss to visit the Cyprus Folk Art Museum. Although it is a small museum you will have the opportunity to live within an hour the whole history of Cyprus.The entrance fee is only 2 Euros.

      An hour of going around would be more than enough, but surely worth it. Gives some idea as to how people dressed, what they ate, what musical instruments they played, etc. Very homey little space for a quick visit. Upstairs is the Icons exposition, which shows the religious works of contemporary artists and is very beautiful and unique. Next door is the St' John's Cathedral. So all together I would recommend to make a quick trip to this part of the old town to see both the museum/icon expo and the cathedral.

      The Folk Art museum captures what rural traditional life in Cyprus must have been like. The artifacts and exhibits take you back to a simpler time. I highly recommend this museum to be able to appreciate Cypriot culture as a whole.

      Originally a Benedictine monastery that retains a number of 15th-century architectural features of the Frankish period.A museum with a vast and rich collection of everyday items from a forgotten era. Traditional costumes, looms, pieces of furniture decorative baskets, clay pots, jewellery pieces and metal work, including the most intricate filigree work. It certainly pays to visit it and for this reason I highly recommend it.The Folk Art Museum is open for the public Monday to Friday from 09:30 to 16:00 and Saturdays from 09:00 to 13:00.

      This is a wonderful traditional local museum owned and run by a husband and wife who have lived in the village all their lives. They make traditional Silk garments from silk worms to finished hand weaves . They have such a lot to tell about life in this lovely hillside village. Entrance is free , but please leave a donation. The museum is recommended by the Cyprus Tourisum Organisation. A lovely afternoon in this beautiful traditional Cypriot village , which has a couple of nice Tavernas and a pretty Church.

      Great location as is in the Archbishop's Palace yard and next to Saint John Cathedral, just in the centre of the old town of Nicosia.Is a small stone-built ,of 15th century, Museum, with great exchibitions of hundrets years ago, when Cyprus was completly different ! I liked it and surely recommend it, for those who are interested to have history knowledges about this small but interesting country.

      The Folk Art Museum is situated within the Archibishop's building. I was not interested at the beginning to visit it but I decided to visit it and I was not dissapointed. It was a very interesting experience. The building was made out of stone and archs and it was really nice to be there. It includes 5-6 small rooms that cover what you expect from a folk art museum. We were really satisfied at the end and we overall enjoyed it. There was also a guide but unfortunately let's say that she was not an expert of the exhibitions.I do not recommend to go to this area only for this museum, but if you are nearby, definitely it is a very good choice and you can estimate your visit at about 20-30 minutes. Outside the museum was a lady with traditional products and inside a small shop.
