Today,
in the city we can see the Archaeological museum of
Eretria. Its exhibits are very valuable and extremely
interesting.
Among
them we can admire age-old findings from Lefkandi, from
Eretria since the geometric period, archaic sculptures
from the western pediment of the temple of Dafniforos
Apollo, findings from the temple of Artemis of
Amarinthos, the famous complex of Theseus and Antiope
etc.
Right
opposite to the museum, the archaeological site and the
ruins of ancient Eretria is expanding in a great
distance to the east. There the visitor has the
opportunity to walk through the remains of the ancient
ci-ty and to admire the relics of gymnasiums, palaces
and temples (temple of Dionysus, Isio, sanctuaries,
etc.)
To
the south-eastern site of the archaeological site, there
are signs of the ancient theatre of Eretria. |
