Paphos municipality signed a contract on Monday with the construction company for two new museum facilities: the Georgios Kr. Tornaritis Natural History and Art Museum and a multi-thematic museum housing art collections and historical artefacts.
The total project cost amounts to €1.8 million, with a construction period of 10 months from the project start date, municipal authorities announced.
Architect Andreas Vardas designed and planned the project.
The Georgios Kr. Tornaritis Natural History and Art Museum will display collections spanning natural history and art, whilst the multi-thematic museum will house various historical objects and artworks.
The city served as European Capital of Culture in 2017, which catalysed various cultural infrastructure projects across the district.
