Cyprus Wine Museum

Cyprus


Located 4km east of Episkopi, off the B6 Lemesos–Pafos highway, the Cyprus Wine Museum offers an insight into the history of Cypriot winemaking. There are three guided-tour options, some including wine tasting after viewing the winemaking exhibits. Displays include medieval drinking vessels and jars, as well as explanatory information on all aspects of winemaking. There’s also a short audio-visual presentation.

The museum organises live jazz concerts in summer.
