About Alectora

Alektora, also known as Gökağaç, is a village in the Limassol District of Cyprus. It was established in the first millennium by residents of nearby villages and gradually Turkified and Islamicised during the rule of the Ottomans. It was inhabited almost exclusively by Turkish Cypriots before the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974 and the population exchanges that occurred thereafter. The village now has a small community of Greek Cypriots.
