Guided Tour to the Archaeological Site of Kolona Aegina
Guided Tour to the Archaeological Site of Kolona Aegina
The Temple of Apollo (or Kolona) is the first monument you see as soon as you reach the port of Aegina and one of the most important sites from an archaeological and historical point of view. The construction of the Temple was completed before the construction of the famous temple of the Parthenon (6th century BC), so you can tell why this finding is of such great importance!
The hill of Kolona Aegina was the Acropolis of the island from prehistoric times (3000 BC) or even earlier up to the ancient times when it was worshiped as a sacred place.
Of this former religious and political center of the island, now survives, among other things, a column (height 8m) belonging to the archaic temple of Apollo from which the attraction took its name. They say that the Venetian sailors used the columns of the Temple of Apollo for orientation.
It is one thing to wander by yourself and another to book a tour of the archeological site of Kolona. Accompanied by an accredited guide, you will learn, see and feel all the truth, the energy, and the aura of the space. This tour will make you feel richer!
