These are located in a small chapel to the back right of the church as you face the front. The remains of his X-shaped cross are kept behind it. Although the present (substantial, but undistinguished) church was built after World War II, the mosaics give a vivid picture of old Patras. It's important to dress appropriately to visit the cathedral, a major pilgrimage shrine thanks to the presence of St. Andrew's skull in an ornate gold reliquary to the right of the altar. Visitors will find several pleasant cafes in the shaded park across from the cathedral.
The Castro, which offers a good view of the city. The castle of Patras was built in the second half of the 6th century A.D. on the ruins of the ancient Acropolis. In A.D. 805 the inhabitants of the city were besieged in the castle by the Slavs and Saracens and their victory, considered a miracle of the city's patron Saint Andrew, was important for repelling the barbarian invasions in Peloponnese. In the following centuries the castle, which remained continuously in use until the Second World War for the defense of the city, as well as an administrative and military centre, was captured by the Franks, Venetians, Palaiologoi and Turks. The castle consists of a triangular outer enclosure reinforced with towers and bastions, which was originally protected by a der travel up the vast staircase or take the short drive to the top. Once reaching the historic site, visitors have the ability to sit and enjoy the view over refreshments.
The Faro (Lighthouse) which is the symbol of the city. The lighthouse has a cafe underneath it with a large television where they broadcast mostly soccer games for people to come and watch while enjoying a beverage of their choice. There is a playground right outside of the cafe for children to play in. The cafe is next to the water, so one can sit next to the windows and enjoy the waves crashing against the wall.
The Turkish hot baths (Hammam) which are still in use.
Plateia Yioryiou (George Sq.). Sit at a cafe and take in the facades of the handsome neoclassical theater and banks on the square. Patras was burned by the Turks during the War of Independence and has been hit repeatedly by earthquakes. These buildings are among the few that remain from the 19th century, when the city was famous for its arcaded streets and neoclassical architecture. Patras boasts other attractive squares: Plateia Olga and Plateia 25 Martiou have cafes, restaurants, and shops
The Municipal Galery of Patras, founded in 1988 housed on the ground floor of the Municipal Library, beside the Old Town Hall, a location with many historical memories.

Patras - Griechenland, Greece HD Travel Channel
Patras is the third largest city in Greece and the largest city on the Peloponnese.
Patras is a major port and a center of trade and commerce. Even from a distance one can see the Rio--Antirrio bridge crossing the Gulf of Corinth. It connects the town of Rio near Patras on the Peloponnese with the mainland of Greece. The bridge is one of the longest cable-stayed bridges in the world. The five-span four-pylon cable-stayed has a length of 7,388 ft.
The bay is frequently run through by strong winds in this area. The bridge lies in a seismically active area with sandy subsoil. For the construction of the innovative bridge completely new design principles have been applied.
For some time Patras was under the influence of the Venetians, which still can be seen in the cityscape today. In 1820 it was destroyed by an earthquake in large parts. 1821 the Greek struggle for independence flared up in Patras. The Ottomans were forced back to the citadel. After the evacuation, the Ottomans managed to reconquer the city and destroyed it completely.
In the east of the city near the harbor is the Greek Orthodox basilica of Saint Andrew - Agios Andreas. It is the largest church in Greece and one of the largest in Europe with place for 5,500 visitors. The central dome has a heigth of 164 ft.

Patras ist die drittgrößte Stadt Griechenlands und die größte Stadt auf dem Peloponnes.
Patras ist ein wichtiger Hafen und eine Handelsmetropole. Schon von weitem ist die Rio-Andirrio-Brücke zu sehen, die den Golf von Korinth im Westen bei Rio, in der Nähe von Patras, überspannt. Die Brücke zählt mit 2.252 m zu den längsten Schrägseilbrücken der Welt. Der Golf wird hier häufig von starken Winden durchzogen, bietet nur sandigen Untergrund und liegt in einem seismisch aktiven Gebiet. Beim Bau der innovativen Brücke gelangten völlig neue Konstruktionsprinzipien zur Anwendung.
Einige Zeit stand Patras unter dem Einfluss der Venezianer, was noch heute im Stadtbild deutlich erkennbar ist. 1820 wurde sie durch ein Erdbeben in weiten Teilen zerstört. 1821 flammte hier der griechische Unabhängigkeitskampf auf. Dabei wurden die Osmanen auf die Zitadelle zurückgedrängt. Nach der Räumung gelang es den Osmanen die Stadt zurückzuerobern und komplett zu zerstörten.
Im Osten der Stadt in der Nähe des Hafens steht die griechisch-orthodoxe Andreaskirche - Agios Andreas. Sie ist die größte Kirche Griechenlands und eine der größten in Europa, mit Platz für 5.500 Besucher. Die zentrale Kuppel ist 50 m hoch.
