Riassunto

Built around 1571 by Lala Mustafa Pasha, the first Ottoman administrator of Cyprus, the baths suffered from extreme lack of maintenance. The exterior render of the domes had severely deteriorated, resulting in water infiltration, decay of stones and mortar, penetration of vegetation, corrosion of embedded iron elements, development of cracks and loss of stability. Internally, peeling plaster, noxious fumes from the disintegrating hypocaust and furnace, high heat and humidity levels, as well as the dated electrical and sewerage systems, created an insalubrious environment.

Retaining the building’s traditional use was of primary consideration in the restoration. Works principally involved reinstating the structural capacity of the damaged walls, shells and domes. Roots were removed, cracks repaired and corroded door anchors replaced. Deformed segments were numbered, dismantled and reconstructed using the original stones where possible, together with matching new limestone ashlars from the Nicosia district quarries. Following extensive research and documentation, the hypocaust was removed and a new structure of fired bricks and stone slabs constructed. The deteriorating walls were consolidated by grouting with a hydraulic lime mortar. Hidden architectural features were revealed, including walls attesting the existence of an older building which are exposed and protected behind a glass wall. New installations were accommodated without disruption to the building’s architectural integrity - beneath the floor or in low-key structures. In full operation since March 2005, the restored baths have contributed immensely to upgrading one of the most neglected areas of the city.
