Kyrenia Town Office

Kyrenia is an ancient port town located on the north coast. The town was reportedly founded before 1,000 BCE by Greeks from the Peloponnese and is in an area where human settlements from as early as the Neolithic Era have been unearthed. As of the Turkish invasion of 1974, there have been two municipal govenments for Kyrenia. The municipality de jure, Greek, is located in this building, is immediately south of the Green Line at the official Ledra Palace check point. The municipality de facto, Turkish, is located on the coast at the town itself, which is presently referred to as "Girne" by the Turkish speaking population..
