Famagusta View Point
Observe Famagusta's issue of illegal occupation by Turkish troops
The Cultural Center of Occupied Famagusta is built in Deryneia next to the roadblock, which since 1974 has been dividing Cyprus in two.
As it is known, Turkey continues to have illegally occupied 37% of the Republic of Cyprus since July 1974, disregarding any decisions made for the withdrawal of its troops from the territories of Cyprus and violating human rights.

Under these circumstances, the purpose of establishing the Famagusta cultural center is to promote Famagusta's issue of illegal occupation by the Turkish troops. Famagusta's cultural center also functions as an observatory where visitors can admire the town of Famagusta from afar.
