The medieval Armenian church of Famagusta, Cyprus, lying in the northwestern or Syrian quarter of the city (Fig. 1), provides a case study through which to raise issues concerning the historical conservation of Famagusta’s cultural heritage. This article surveys aspects of the building’s history, its conservation record, and proposes how it might play a role in any future plans to vitalize the historical centre of the city. The structure may, if utilized in concert with the other historical structures of Famagusta, function to contribute to the rejuvenation of this medieval walled town (Doratli et al. 2007:65-88). Though not very well known today Famagusta has an extremely rich history and was once renowned in Europe and the Levant. Cyprus came under the control of a European crusader dynasty, the Lusignans, after Muslim victories in the Holy Land expelled the crusaders from the region. Guy de Lusignan had been the King of Jerusalem before losing his kingdom to Saladin’s forces in 1190. Instead of retreating to the Lusignan ancestral homelands in France, Guy purchased Cyprus from King Richard of England, who had recently conquered it. Thus began the 300 year rule of the Lusignans on Cyprus, which lasted until the CHRONOS Revue d’Histoire de l’Université de Balamand Numéro 19, 2009, ISSN 1608 7526
