Marathon Essentials

Marathon preserves the monumental history of the 490 BC battle against the Persian Empire. This collection highlights the burial mounds of the Athenian and Plataean warriors, the ancient city of Rhamnous with its Doric Temple of Nemesis, and the Roman-era Sanctuary of the Egyptian Gods at Brexiza. The list also covers the region's modern landmarks, including the marble-faced Marathon Dam and the Marathon Run Museum, which traces the history of the Olympic race from its ancient roots to modern global competition.
