♨️ Ömeriye Hamam

Ömeriye Hamam in Nicosia, Cyprus is a historic Ottoman hammam. It was created by Lala Mustafa Pasha in the 1570s, soon after the Ottoman conquest of Cyprus, and was part of the larger complex of the Ömeriye Mosque dedicated to the memory of the Caliph Omar. The complex reused the earlier 14th-century Augustinian church of St. Mary which was damaged in the Ottoman siege. The hammam was restored in 2002–2004 as part of the Lefkosia Master Plan and is still in use today as a bathhouse and spa.
