Ethnographical Museum - Paphos

A very private and unique venue

This quirky venue is set right in the heart of Paphos’ old town, so is in an area of historical interest with its beautiful colonial buildings and old Cyprus doorways, providing amazing opportunities for photography. Combined with a local beach sunset shoot and you have a beautiful mix!

The Ethnographical Museum is an interesting and attractive new venue for weddings in Paphos which is proving to be a very popular choice for many couples.

This is a private house owned by a Cypriot family for generations. The main founder, George Eliades, was a well known archeologist in the area who opened the museum in 1958.

It is now family run and a very private, different venue for a special wedding day.
