Lighthouse of Agioi Theodoroi
Φάρος Αγίων Θεοδώρων
A round lighthouse with sixteen Doric columns at the tip of the Argostoli peninsula, a classic spot for watching the sunset.
Built in 1828 during British rule, this round lighthouse is surrounded by sixteen Doric columns, a distinctive design. It was destroyed in the 1953 earthquake and rebuilt to its original design. Standing on rocks at the northern tip of the peninsula, facing the Ionian Sea, it is Argostoli's most popular spot for watching the sunset. It is about a 40-minute walk along the coastal path from the city centre, or can be reached by bike or car, with a stop at the Katavothres on the way. Free to visit.
