In the foreground is the Armenian church.

Then the Carmelite church (St Mary of the Carmelites)

I think the one in the background is Ayia Anna

STOP! The winner is known: Darrener2! Sorry, Darrener2, after another power-cut I too hastily read through the answers.

Here's the location (cut out of my map of Famagusta with all Lusignan, Venetian and Ottoman remains) of St. Mary of the Armenians (Lusignan era), St. Mary of Carmel (Lusignan era) and the San Luca Bastion (part of the Venetian wall, just finished before the Ottoman attack in 1570-1571).

QWell done, Darrener2! And my apologies again.
