The west of North Cyprus
The old Saint George’s Church in Koruçam (Kormakitis). Constructed in the 16th century, the church was the main church of the Maronite community until the early 20th century when it ceded with the building of the new Saint George cathedral; H.E. Youssef Soueif, the Maronite Archbishop of Cyprus, consecrated it on 15 November 2015. The church constituted as the official church of the Maronite Church of Cyprus, prior to 1974. Today, Saint George’s Church is used by the remaining inhabitants.
