Τρουλλι Observatory
In the 11th century, the northern coasts of Cyprus faced frequent raids by Saracen pirates. To combat these, the Byzantine rulers built several castles, including Kyrenia, Buffavento, St. Hilarion, and Kantara. They also constructed strategic watchtowers for early warning and communication. One such tower, now a ruin, is located on the seaside hill "Troulli" in Kato Pyrgos Tyllirias. The Venetians later destroyed many of these Byzantine and Frankish fortifications.
