The walled gates of Acrocorinth, as rebuilt by the Venetians.
Acrocorinth, looking north towards the Gulf of Corinth.
Acrocorinth (Greek: Ακροκόρινθος), Upper Corinth, the acropolis of ancient Corinth, is a monolithic rock overseeing the ancient city of Corinth, Greece. It is the most impressive of the acropoleis of mainland Greece, in the estimation of George Forrest. Acrocorinth was continuously occupied from archaic times to the early 19th century. Along with Demetrias and Chalcis, the Acrocorinth during the Hellenistic period formed one of the so-called Fetters of Greece - three fortresses garrisoned by the Macedonians to secure their control of the Greek city-states. The city's archaic acropolis, already an easily defensible position due to its geomorphology, was further heavily fortified during the Byzantine Empire as it became the seat of the strategos of the thema of Hellas and later of the Peloponnese. It was defended against the Crusaders for three years by Leo Sgouros.
Afterwards it became a fortress of the Frankish Principality of Achaea, the Venetians and the Ottoman Turks.[clarification needed] With its secure water supply, Acrocorinth's fortress was used as the last line of defense in southern Greece because it commanded the Isthmus of Corinth, repelling foes from entry into the Peloponnese peninsula. Three circuit walls formed the man-made defense of the hill. The highest peak on the site was home to a temple to Aphrodite which was converted to a church, and then became a mosque. The American School's Corinth Excavations began excavations on it in 1929. Currently, Acrocorinth is one of the most important medieval castle sites of Greece.
In a Corinthian myth related in the 2nd century CE to Pausanias, Briareus, one of the Hecatonchires, was the arbitrator in a dispute between Poseidon and Helios, between the sea and the sun: his verdict was that the Isthmus of Corinth belonged to Poseidon and the acropolis of Corinth (Acrocorinth) to Helios.
The Upper Pirene spring is located within the encircling walls. The spring, which is behind the temple, they say was the gift of Asopus to Sisyphus. The latter knew, so runs the legend, that Zeus had ravished Aegina, the daughter of Asopus, but refused to give information to the seeker before he had a spring given him on the Acrocorinthus.

Acrocorinth is seen by every visitor to ancient Corinth - from a distance. It looms up in the background, its fortification walls clearly visible.
But few visitors see Corinth from Acrocorinth. Only the most dedicated archaeological tours take the trouble to drive up to this lofty fortress hill. If you are traveling by car then it's easy to get to, or hire a taxi as it's only a couple of kilometers from ancient Corinth.
Although it must have been an important place to the ancient Greeks, most of the remains are from medieval times. But the views are spectacular, and it's well worth a visit. One big advantage is if you're tired of crowds, then you'll probably have the site to yourself, or half a dozen other visitors at the most.
Acrocorinth was first a Greek acropolis, then a Roman citadel. Later it became a Byzantine fortress. The Franks captured it in 1210, and it then fell into the hands of one of the rulers of Naples. An arms manufacturer and banker then owned it, followed by the Knights of Rhodes, the Turks, the Venetians, then the Turks again, and finally the Greeks once more. Phew!
With all that lot knocking bits down, reinforcing other parts, or adding their own sections, you can see why there isn't much left from ancient Greek times.
First gate
This was built in the 14th C. A moat was cut out of the rock to provide a defense against attack.
Second gate
The Venetians were responsible for building this gate. You'll see on one side they built a tower.
Third gate
This gate has two rectangular towers on either side. The one on the right is mostly from the 4th C BC, while the other one is Byzantine. Most of the walls in this area are also Byzantine.
From this third gate the path takes you up through the old Turkish part to the rampart and the northern postern. It's quite a steep climb. You'll see the remains of the mosque and the minaret.
Then make your way back, and head towards the keep.
Acrocorinth est vu par chaque visiteur à l'ancienne Corinthe - de loin. Il s'élève à l'arrière-plan, ses murs de fortification sont clairement visibles.
Mais peu de visiteurs voient Corinth d'Acrocorinth. Seules les visites archéologiques les plus dévouées prennent la peine de conduire jusqu'à cette haute colline forteresse. Si vous voyagez en voiture, il est facile de se rendre à, ou louer un taxi car il n'est qu'à quelques kilomètres de l'ancienne Corinthe.
Bien qu'il ait dû être une place importante pour les Grecs anciens, la plupart des restes sont de l'époque médiévale. Mais les vues sont spectaculaires, et il vaut bien une visite. Un grand avantage est si vous êtes fatigué des foules, alors vous aurez probablement le site pour vous-même, ou une demi-douzaine d'autres visiteurs au plus.
Acrocorinth était d'abord une acropole grecque, puis une citadelle romaine. Plus tard il est devenu une forteresse byzantine. Les Francs l'ont capturée en 1210, et elle est tombée entre les mains de l'un des dirigeants de Naples. Un fabricant d'armes et un banquier le possédaient alors, suivis par les Chevaliers de Rhodes, les Turcs, les Vénitiens, puis les Turcs à nouveau, et enfin les Grecs une fois de plus. Phew!
Avec tout ce lot de frapper des morceaux vers le bas, le renforcement des autres parties, ou en ajoutant leurs propres sections, vous pouvez voir pourquoi il n'ya pas beaucoup de gauche de l'époque grecque.
Première porte
Celle-ci a été construite au XIVe s. Un fossé a été coupé de la roche pour fournir une défense contre l'attaque.
Deuxième porte
Les Vénitiens étaient responsables de la construction de cette porte. Vous verrez d'un côté qu'ils ont construit une tour.
Troisième porte
Cette porte a deux tours rectangulaires de chaque côté. Celui de droite est surtout du IVe siècle av. J.-C., tandis que l'autre est byzantin. La plupart des murs de cette région sont également byzantins.
De cette troisième porte, le sentier vous emmène à travers la vieille partie turque jusqu'au rempart et la poterne nordique. C'est une montée assez abrupte. Vous verrez les restes de la mosquée et du minaret.
Puis faire votre chemin du retour, et la tête vers le donjon.

Number 1: the Corinth canal. the canal is 6.4 km long with a width of only 25 meters.
The Corinth Canal is a waterway that crosses the narrow Corinth isthmus to link the Gulf of Corinth to the Saronic Gulf. As such, it separates the Greek mainland from the Peloponnese, turning it into an island.
The canal, though executed in the late 19th c, 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, had to circle the Peloponnese
This narrow canal makes it Impossible for modern ships to go through. Thus, ideal for a cruise with departure from Piraeus port. And the bridge connecting the peninsula to the mainland is perfect for bungee jumping!
Number two: Melagavi lighthouse & Heraion lake. Two stunning places that you will remember for a long time.
The stone lighthouse at Cape Melagavi was built in 1897. It is an impressive attraction itself and also a stunning experience due to the unique view that it offers!
Just 16km from Loutraki a surprising landscape awaits you. A closed lagoon encircled by nature’s finery, it can be your summer hideaway. Dive into the water, do sports, taste fresh fish & ouzo: HEAVEN!
Next to the lagoon at Vouliagmeni is an archaeological site. Beginning in the Geometric period, the goddess Hera was worshipped here next to the sea. Swimming in this setting is truly out of this world.

Number three: Acrocorinth. A lofty citadel
A long and tumultuous history is recorded in the walls of Acrocorinth. In Ancient Greece, the high city was dedicated to the worship of Aphrodite, the goddess of love. Its massive fortifications attest that many of its ‘visitors’ over the years have been far from what you would call ‘affectionate’. Bloody battles, sieges and dozens of heroic legends mark Acrocorinth’s history.
Number four: Schinos village. A cosi summer resort, authentic and welcoming!
Schinos is a picturesque settlement in Loutraki-Perachora region, in Corinth. Famous for the
beautiful pine forests, the crystal blue sea, the camping, a cool beach bar and the fish taverns!
Schinos is now a popular weekend destination for the citizens of Athens. There are two beaches, one
sandy with tavernas on the shore and one pebbly. Visitors find here a relaxed and laid back atmosphere.
Number five: Skalosia beach. Remote and exotic beach 15' NE of Heraion Lake
Wild beauty and the minimum of human intervention or presence! The place where the green mountain dives into the seductive sea… Some lucky people that they visit the beach during April or Octomber and November can enjoy privacy, as they will be so alone there that could practically may have outdoors sex without anyone noticing!

Ancient Corinth - Greece HD Travel Channel
In ancient Corinth in Greece, only the remains of the Temple of Zeus bear witness from the archaic city. Otherwise, the ruins are strongly influenced by the Roman past. In the centre of the Agora one can still recognize the speaker's platform where the apostle Paulus had to justify himself before the Roman dictators.
The well house of the Peirene Fountain is in good conditon; Peirene, a nymph in Greek mythology, is said to be the daughter of the river god Asospus. Many statues once surrounded the large pool.
The wide Lechaion Road, the main shopping street of Ancient Corinth today, still conveys the vitality of yore.
From the theater, only the foundations are still visible.
The adjacent museum displays rich murals, mosaics and sculptures.
A mighty citadel rises on a hill above the ancient town. Byzantines, Franks, Ottomans and Venetians have all left their traces here.

Gut erhalten ist das Brunnenhaus der Quelle der Peirene, einer Nymphe der griechischen Mythologie. Viele Statuen umgaben einst das große Schwimmbecken.
Die breite Lechaion-Straße, die Einkaufsstrasse Korinths, vermittelt noch heute die Vitalität, die sich hier einst gezeigt hat.

Acrocorinth, the castle of Corinth, Corinth Greece
After the fall of Constantinople and the dismemberment of the Byzantine Empire to lesser states, Byzantine officials and lords around Greece decided to acquire control of the areas they holded by military strength. Among them, the most noted one was the Sgouros family of Nafplion. By raw military strength he invaded Argos and after a time he invaded Corinth.
Corinth, by the time of the Byzantine rule was very important city as it held a strategic location in the Isthmus and its fortification, Acrocorinth was one of the most formidable castles in the area. Nikolaos, Archbishop of Corinth, the highest official in Corinth, attempted to reconcile with Sgouros but his attempts were in vain. Although Archbishop Nikolaos begged for military assistance and support from Constantinople but Byzantine armies were virtually non existent. Corinth fell to Leon Sgouros in 1202 a.d.
Akrokorinthos, Corinth, Greece
Visit the ancient Corinthian Acropolis, Akrokorinthos, in Corinth, Greece. This amazing mountain-top fortress has been inhabited continuously from Archaic times to the early 19th century.
Greece: Ancient Corinth
Ancient Corinth lay at the foothills of Acrocorinth hill on the narrow stretch of land that joins the Peloponnese to the mainland of Greece, roughly halfway between Athens and Sparta.
In 550 B.C. Corinth allied themselves with Sparta and also built: The Temple of Apollo.
The Museum of Ancient Corinth contains art from The Geometric period up to The Hellenistic period.

Ο Ακροκόρινθος είναι απότομος βράχος ύψους 575 μέτρων που δεσπόζει στην πεδιάδα της Κορίνθου. Στους βόρειους πρόποδές του ήταν χτισμένη η Αρχαία Κόρινθος, ο Κόρινθος. Λόγω της μορφολογίας του, χρησιμοποιήθηκε από τα αρχαία χρόνια ως σκοπιά που αναδείχθηκε σε κάστρο (Ακρόπολη), από το οποίο και εποπτευόταν κάθε τυχόν επιδρομή από την Στερεά Ελλάδα ή από τη θάλασσα. Στη γλώσσα των αγωνιστών του 1821 καλούταν Ακρόκορθος και η Κόρινθος Κόρθος.

NATURE'S PATHWAYS - ACROCORINTH FORTRESS, GREECE
An hour and a half outside Athens, Corinth welcomes you to the State of Peloponnese.
At a distance of 2-3 km from the sea, above the ancient and modern city of Corinth, appears the rocky massif of Acrocorinth (575 m. high). In past times it dominated the surounding area, could control the fertile plain and was easy to defend in the event of enemy attack.
Today it offers an excellent opportunity to follow nature's pathways in a combination of historic routes, physical exersice and mental relaxation.
I visited the fortress on CLEAN MONDAY a public Holiday for Greece, in March 7 2011.
