The small village of Ancient Corinth, with its great archaeological site and few permanent residents, is very close to the modern city of Corinth and to the shadow of an arid castle. The Acrocorinth Castle is visible from afar on the steep rock and is accessible only from Ancient Corinth. The truth is that once you get to Corinth, but almost everywhere you go, you've got the Acrocorinthian rock. Even when you don't see him! It stands lonely, lonely, with the oldest castle in Greece at its peak. The image of the rock from afar exudes a real sense of power, cruelty, domination. But also loneliness. It looks so cut off from the rest of the environment. The car reaches the entrance to the castle where there is plenty of parking space and a cafe open all year. The distance from Ancient Corinth is very short (3 km) and there are signs in the village after the archaeological site. A heavy gate leads into the interior of the castle. Parts of the ancient pre-Christian wall, Byzantine era, Frankish, Venetian and Turkish rule are distinguished. Remains of churches, mosques, houses. Fountains and tanks are preserved behind the second and third enclosures.  On the castle paths we observe that the fortification is secured by a system of three enclosures separated by towers fortified with walls. At the highest of the two peaks of the hill, the remains of the Temple of Aphrodite are preserved, replacing a later Christian temple and a mosque. The second peak, at the southwestern tip of the cliff, was fortified during the Franks period and constituted the inner citadel of the fortress. According to mythology, the rock of the Acrocorinth was the favorite place of the god Helios, since he first received its golden rays every morning. At its highest peak was the throne 'Helios', which he later granted to Venus. Today, the castle is brightly lit at night and all its legendary moments tell their story in the shadows. (Go in the morning to have time to walk to the castle with your peace of mind. Free admission. Wear indoor sneakers and bring water with you during your visit.)

The Isthmus of Corinth is a narrow strip of land that connects Central Greece with the Peloponnese, while the canal that has been opened there connects the Saronic Gulf with the Corinthian Gulf. It is about 6 kilometers long and the narrowest point is where the Corinth Canal (1880-1893) was built. It was a strategic point and for this reason a wall had been built already in ancient times (late 5th century BC), which had been preserved until the Byzantines (Examilion). The Isthmus of Corinth was known in the ancient world as the landmark that separated the Peloponnese from the rest of mainland Greece. In the 1st century AD the geographer Strabo pointed to a column in the Corinthian isthmus, bearing two inscriptions. One to the East, namely the Megara of Attica, which used to say: "the valley of the Peloponnese, but Ionia" and the other to the West, i.e. the Peloponnese: "the valley of the Peloponnese, ok Ionia". Plutarch attributed the erection of this column to the hero of Attica Theseus en route to Athens. The Corinth Canal has been excavated since 1893 at a width of 6.3 kilometers, which in effect makes the Peloponnese an island. Today two road, two railway and two submerged bridges at the two ends of the canal connect the continental side of the Isthmus with that of the Peloponnese. There is also a military emergency bridge at the west end of the canal.

Mycenae had been inhabited since 2,500. But the brightest era of their history and prosperity coincides with the Late Bronze Age from 1600 to 1110 BC. about. This period corresponds to the most visible findings to date. According to mythology, the founder of Mycenae was Perseus. Pausanias mentions that Perseus named the new city Mycenae either because of the fall of his sword or because a source of abundant water was discovered there, the Persian source, under the root of a "fungus", that is, a mushroom. According to legend, according to the portal odysseus.culture.gr of the Ministry of Culture and Sports, the descendants of Perseus reigned in Mycenae for three generations, with Eurystheus last, who was killed without leaving offspring and thus the inhabitants of Mycenae. their king Atreas, son of Pelops and father of Agamemnon and Menelaus. The reconstruction of the palaces, visible today, began around 1350 BC. Then began the fortification of the acropolis. Later, during the Hellenistic period, the Argites repaired the prehistoric walls and the archaic temple and built a small theater over the road to the vaulted tomb of Klytimnestra. In the following centuries the town remained almost abandoned and was already ruined when Pausanias visited it in the 2nd century. A.D. The Cyclopean walls of the Mycenaean Acropolis, however, remained visible over the centuries and were the attraction of many travelers who did not hesitate to plunder the area during the 18th and 19th centuries. In 1837, after the liberation of Greece, the Mycenaeans came under the auspices of the Athens Archaeological Society, which still conducts research in the area. In 1941 its representative, K. Pittakis, cleared the Leo's Gate, and in 1876, Henry Schliemann, after small trial cuts in 1874, began his grand excavation, which revealed five graves, under the supervision of P. Stamatakis. who continued work between 1876 and 1877, revealing the sixth tomb. The work of Schleiman and Christos Chountas was continued by A. Wace, director of the British School of Archeology, who from 1919 to 1955 systematized the data until then, enriched the research, findings and knowledge of the site and of his cultural idiom.

The Corinth Historical-Folklore Museum, founded in 1976 at the initiative of the Corinthian Alkmeni Petropoulou-Gartagani, operates as a Legal Entity under Private Law, ending under the supervision of the Ministries of Culture and Finance. His national and public interests focus on finding, rescuing, preserving, preserving, and displaying a permanent exhibition of the evidence of history and especially of the folk traditions of modern Hellenism. Its founding is the crown of his founder's uninterrupted and long-lasting social contribution, which has shown great interest in collecting works of modern Greek folk culture. Alkmeni Garthagani-Petropoulou knew and loved deeply the Greek folk culture. She envisioned the creation of a Museum of Modern Hellenism in her hometown, Corinth, which had not gained anything in the 160 years of her independent life. Consciously, therefore, without departing from its original orientation, with amazing instinct, it devoted itself to collecting works of modern Greek life and art, solely on the basis of their national, historical and cultural value. Its purpose was to illuminate the religious, historical, social and cultural life of the Greeks with this material, with objects, many of which are difficult today, dating back to the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries.

Historical and Folklore Museum of Corinth

The Corinth Historical-Folklore Museum, founded in 1976 at the initiative of the Corinthian Alkmeni Petropoulou-Gartagani, operates as a Legal Entity under Private Law, ending under the supervision of the Ministries of Culture and Finance. His national and public interests focus on finding, rescuing, preserving, preserving, and displaying a permanent exhibition of the evidence of history and especially of the folk traditions of modern Hellenism. Its founding is the crown of his founder's uninterrupted and long-lasting social contribution, which has shown great interest in collecting works of modern Greek folk culture. Alkmeni Garthagani-Petropoulou knew and loved deeply the Greek folk culture. She envisioned the creation of a Museum of Modern Hellenism in her hometown, Corinth, which had not gained anything in the 160 years of her independent life. Consciously, therefore, without departing from its original orientation, with amazing instinct, it devoted itself to collecting works of modern Greek life and art, solely on the basis of their national, historical and cultural value. Its purpose was to illuminate the religious, historical, social and cultural life of the Greeks with this material, with objects, many of which are difficult today, dating back to the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. Since the opening of the Museum, many Corinthians have been quick to deposit objects of historical and folklore interest in it.

The temple on the rocky plateau is identified with the Temple of Apollo mentioned in the sources. The original temple dating from the early 7th to the early 6th century BC. It was made of stone, bricks and wooden beams and carried a heavy and intricate quadruple roof made of clay tiles. It was probably a simple construction without exterior columns, but in another sense it was circumstantial. During the middle of the 6th century BC, a double-storied Doric temple was erected on the site of the destroyed original building. It was surrounded by six columns on the narrow sides and fifteen on the long sides, and was oriented on the A-D axis. The main building consists of a pronao and a rear, with two columns in the wall, and a nave with two compartments, separated by a transverse concrete wall with a possible intermediate opening. The western room identifies with a vault. Two rows of columns ran through the two chambers of the nave, but were removed in Roman times when the church was radically renovated. Part of the east wing was destroyed by the erection of the Ottoman Bey's residence in Corinth.

Lake Vouliagmeni or IraionThe Temple of Iraion Perachora and Lake Vouliagmeni or Iraion, a few kilometers after Loutraki, are an ideal choice even for a day trip and certainly an ideal choice for a family outing. Heraion combines antiquities and unparalleled Mediterranean nature. The ruins of the ancient temple dedicated to the goddess Hera descend almost into the water. The lake (which is not exactly a lake because it joins the sea through a small canal) is less than an hour from Athens. Surrounded by natural pine forests and considered one of the most beautiful in Greece, an unexpected paradise landscape with serene atmosphere and natural beauty. To distinguish it from the corresponding lake of Vouliagmeni of the capital, it is supplemented by the designation Loutraki-Perachora. It is partly due to its name in the archaeological site of the Temple of Hera, located one kilometer from the lake. It is 12 km from Loutraki and in ancient times it was called "Eschatiotis" or "Gorgopis". To the west of the lake lies the promontory of the Heraion of Perachora, or Melagavi, where one of the largest lighthouses of the Corinthian Gulf is located. And from the bay of Heraion, the view of the southern coast of Corinth, with the massifs that stand out imposing in the landscape. If you come to this spot in the afternoon, you can enjoy the most beautiful sunset of the Corinthian Gulf, just above the ancient port of Heraion.
