Carolina Rediviva was erected between 1817 and 1841 and is home to Sweden's oldest university library, founded in 1620. Originally three stories high with two mezzanines, the building now spans 12 stories and has about 5 million books and 3,500 shelf meters of handwritten documents. When you walk through the entrance of the library, you'll come to the exhibition room, where you can view the famous Silver Bible from the 6th century, musical notations made by Mozart himself, medieval manuscripts, and Olaus Magnus' Carta Marina, printed in 1539.

Kolossi Castle, a former Crusader stronghold, is steeped in history. The original castle was likely built in 1210 by the Frankish military, while the current structure dates back to 1454, constructed by the Hospitallers under Commander Louis de Magnac. The castle once held great strategic importance and housed extensive facilities for sugar production, a major export for Cyprus during the Middle Ages. Today, the castle consists of a three-story keep and an attached rectangular enclosure, showcasing military architecture of its time. The region is also renowned for the production of the sweet wine, Commandaria, which is considered one of the oldest continuously-produced and named wines globally. The wine was declared to be the "wine of kings and the king of wines" by Richard the Lionheart when he celebrated his conquest of Cyprus by wedding a Spanish princess in this very castle.
