Back to the Middle Ages

If you have a chance to reach the prefecture of Laconia in the south of Peloponessos don't miss the mysterious village of Monemvasia... Peace and calm...

Send Photo to a Friend

The history of the village is a rich one and the fortress which has been used and added to by everyone from the Byzantines, the Crusaders, the Venetians and The Turks, is one of the most spectacular sites in the Aegean and has been called the Gibralter of the East Mediterranean.
