The Cyprus Wine Museum started operation in November 2004, after 6 years of hard work in restoring, expanding and decorating the 150 year old stone building.
Originally the building was an inn, where the wine merchants from the wine villages of Lemesos and Pafos used to meet, and overnight on their way to Lemesos main market. It is therefore quite certain that wine was enjoyed in quantities in the building over the last 100 years.
During the renovation period they had no way of knowing the significance of the site they had chosen for Cyprus’ only wine museum. After they opened evidence came to light that Erimi, the village where it stands, is the starting point of the cultivation of grapes and production of wine in Europe.
