Dionysus and Theseus Rooms

   Attraction Introduction 

      The Dionysus Room is a Roman-style villa, dating back to around the 3rd century AD. Its mosaic floors are considered some of the most beautiful artworks in the eastern Mediterranean, mostly depicting scenes from Greek mythology.

      The Dionysus Room is located in Paphos in the southwest of Cyprus. It was excavated between 1962 and 1974 after being discovered by a local farmer. According to archaeologists, the building was originally a villa owned by a vineyard owner, a private residence with over 40 rooms.
