Municipality of Monemvasia Essentials

The Municipality of Monemvasia is defined by its iconic Byzantine fortress-city, a massive rock connected to the mainland by a narrow causeway. The region features a unique mix of historical and geological sites, including the world's oldest submerged city at Pavlopetri, the three-million-year-old formations of Kastania Cave, and the petrified palm forest at Agia Marina. Visitors can explore the ruins of ancient Zarax and Epidaurus Limera alongside well-preserved medieval churches and the fortified Upper Town overlooking the Myrtoan Sea.
