The Occupied Famagusta Cultural Centre was built at the Deryneia Roadblock where all the anti-occupation demonstrations for Famagusta and our other occupied parts have been taking place since 1974.
There is an observatory where visitors can borrow binoculars to see from a distance the beloved town.
There are projections of films about Famagusta in the multivalent hall of the Centre. Both tourists but also locals, pupils of primary and secondary schools come in their hundreds to see the Centre. Many schools have included the Cultural Centre in their programme of educational trips.
Other events, such as, artistic exhibitions (photography, painting and sculpture) are held there. During the summer months other cultural events are organised in the small amphitheatre. The Centre is also used for seminars, congresses and lectures.
All information given to visitors can be found in different languages and is free of charge.
