Church of Christ - Hellenistic Tower

Cultural Attraction // Castle

Description

Located approximately 1,200 meters south of Agrilia on a passable dirt road, the little Church of Christ overlooks the western side of the island. A passable path (or damaged dirt road) starts here that leads to the southwestern tip of the island and the mines of Alafouzos, where there have been archaeological findings. On the northern end of the surrounding wall of the church, part of a circular Hellenistic/Classical era tower has survived. Similar towers from the same era have also been recorded on other Aegean islands.
