One of the most important events that marked the British stay during their presence in Cyprus – 1878 – 1960 – is the operation of the railway, in 1905 –1951.

The old station building was renovated and a total of about 100 meters of new tracks were laid in 2010-2012, and a new shelter was built for a restored wagon and a hand-powered trolley along informative posters about their past.
The Morfou Diocese was transferred to Evrychou and is housed in the premises of the Old Elementary School after it was renovated and some new apartments were added.
