LATIN ST. GEORGE CHURCH
The church is one of the beautiful examples of
the Gothic style of architecture. It has been built
in the late 13th century; Material from the Salamis
ruins was used in its construction. It is thought to
have been modelled on the St. Chapelle church in
Paris. The church had been constructed before the
city-walls is evident from the rampart like
structure of the building.
It has a nave with five sections and a chancel.
What has survived throughout the years is this
chancel and the Northern wall. The wide, tall
windows once had Gothic traceries.
