Corinth Canal

The Corinth Canal is a waterway that crosses the narrow isthmus of Corinth to link the Gulf of Corinth to the Saronic Gulf. As such, the canal separates the Greek mainland from the Peloponnese, turning it into an island The canal, though executed in the late 19th century, has been a 2000-year-old dream. Before its construction, ships in the Aegean Sea that wanted to cross to the Adriatic or anchor in Corinth, a rich shipping city, had to circle the Peloponnese, which would prolong their journey an extra 185 nautical miles. It is believed that Periander, the tyrant of Corinth (602 BC), was the first to conceive of the idea of digging the Corinth Canal. As the project was too complicated given the limited technical capabilities of the times, Periander constructed the diolkos, a stone road which allowed ships to be transferred on wheeled platforms.

The Diolkos

Discover the ancient limestone roads where boat trailers, slaves, ox and other animals were used to heave boats from the Corinthian Gulf to the Saronic sea controlling over 270 Greek colonies. All coastal Mediterranean cities today were once Greek. This brought the geographical and geopolitical dominance of Corinth and played a catalytic role in why the apostle Paul chose to stay for 18 months in Corinth and why he was adamant in establishing his ministry there.

Archaeological Site of Isthmia

At a short distance from the Corinth Canal, the largest technical project in our country in the 19th century, we find a place that has a glorious history, given that the second most important sports competitions were held there not only in Greece, but also throughout the ancient world, the Isthmians. It is located in a topical and pivotal position at the point where the Peloponnese joins Central Greece.The presence of the Apostle Paul in the Isthmian region is considered very important and the reference made in the Bible about his presence at the Isthmian games was very important because it is the first official presence of a Christian at the games. The apostle Pavkos worked at the Isthmian games as a tent maker for the accommodation of athletes and visitors to the Isthmian games, which were the second most important games after the Olympic games in Ancient Olympia. The apostle Paul proclaimed the son of Christ in the eyes of the visitors and athletes of the games, his action helped

Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos)

tour of the ancient Corinth archaeological siteCorinth was a city-state on the Isthmus of Corinth, the narrow stretch of land that joins the Peloponnese to the mainland of Greece, roughly halfway between Athens and Sparta. For Christians, Corinth is well known from the two letters of Saint Paul in the New Testament, First and Second Corinthians. Corinth is also mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles as part of Paul the Apostle's missionary travels. In addition, the second book of Pausanias' Description of Greece is devoted to Corinth. Ancient Corinth was one of the largest and most important cities of Greece, with a population of 90,000 in 400 BC. The Romans demolished Corinth in 146 BC, built a new city in its place in 44 BC, and later made it the provincial capital of Greece.During Paul‘s stay in Corinth, he was brought for judgment before the proconsul Lucius Junius Gallio Annaeanus, also known as Gallio, on the accusation of conducting illegal teachings. Gallio, however, refused

Amfipoli

With the foundation of the Greek cities at the mouth of the Strymon from the middle of the 7th c. BC, Greek culture started progressively to penetrate into the interior. The graves in the cemetery of the settlement on Hill 133 change their form, and the grave goods are now dominated by cultural elements of the Greek world: figurines, coins, and above all vases imported from the cities of southern Greece (Corinth, Athens) and the Ionian cities of the north Aegean. The presence of the Ionian world is also apparent in the sculptures of the late Archaic and early Classical periods found in the neighbourhood of Hill 133 and on the site of ancient Amphipolis. Local tradition survives in the metal working, especially the bronze and gold ornaments. The foundation of Amphipolis finally in 438/ 437 BC, in the time of Pericles, by the general Hagnon was a great success for the Athenians, whose chief purpose was to ensure control of the rich Strymon hinterland and the Pangaion mines.

Ancient Amphipolis

Acts 17:1 After meeting with the believers at Lydia’s house, Paul and Silas leave Luke behind in Philippi and travel along the Via Egnatia through Amphipolis and ApolloniaAmphipolis was an important town on the Via Egnatia in Paul’s day, although the modern highway bypasses the town . Founded in 437BC by Athenian settlers, the city was built on a plateau a short distance inland from the Aegean Sea, overlooking the valley of the River Strymon. The city was conquered by Philip II of Macedon in 357BC and subsequently became an important centre in the Macedonian kingdom. After the Roman conquest of Macedonia in 168BC, Amphipolis became the capital of the first meris (administrative district) of Macedonia.

Admission Ticket Free

Amfipoli

The Acropolis of Roman Amphipolis – on the hillside above the modern road – can still be visited, together with the ruins of a gymnasium and Roman baths, and a number of early Byzantine churches. These were built shortly after the capital of the Roman Empire was transferred to nearby Constantinople by the first Christian emperor, Constantine, in the 4th Century AD.

Lion of Amphipolis

A range of artefacts from Roman Amphipolis – including an early Christian gravestone inscribed with a cross and the word ‘Emmanuel’ – can be seen in the modern Archaeological Museum at the far end of the village, adjacent to the site of the Roman city. The magnificent stone carved statue known as the Lion of Amphipolis would have stood alongside the old Via Egnatia at the foot of the plateau when Paul visited, just as it does today.

Neapolis

The Holy Cathedral of the Apostle Paul was founded to honour and praise the fact that in this town – then known as Neapolis, subsequently Christoupolis and today Kavala – Paul, the Apostle to the Nations, had reached Greek territory, and Europe more generally, for the first time. The construction of the church began with a group of pious Christians at the beginning of the 20th century and the foundation stone was laid in 1905 by the Metropolitan Bishop of Xanthi, Joachim Sgouros. The Greek Community had first requested the consent of the Ottoman administration, given that the town at that time was still under Turkish rule.

Neapolis

Lydia of Thyatira and the Baptistery named after her . When Paul the Apostle visited Philippi in AD 49/50, founding the first Christian Church in Europe, the appearance of the city changed. Among those who heard the Apostle Paul’s sermon was a woman called Lydia. Lydia decided to be baptised in the waters of the River Zygaktis and she thus became the first Christian woman in the whole of history. The Apostle Paul visited Philippi on another three occasions, a fact that, along with his Letter to the Philippians, shows the long and close relationship between the saint and the community of Philippi.The modern Baptistery of St Lydia (1974), with an octagonal design, can today be found very close by to the archaeological site. On the adjacent bank of the River Zygaktis there is an open-air baptistery within the flowing stream, similar to those that survive in the Early Christian basilicas of Philippi in the shape of a cross. On 20 May each year, the day of memory for St Lydia of Thyatira,
