Limassol Guide

Government

The first marxist groups in Cyprus formed in Limassol in the early 1920s. In 1926 the Communist party of Cyprus was formed in the city. Its successor AKEL dominated municipal elections, since the first free elections in 1943 won by Ploutis Servas.

The current Mayor of the municipality is Andreas Christou - AKEL member as well - and he was elected Mayor of Limassol in December 2006 to serve a five year term.
