Milos

Archaeological sights in Milos

  1. Christian Catacombs

    Milos is home to Greece's only Christian catacombs, which date from the 1st century and were the burial site for early believers. Nearby are Roman ruins, including a well-preserved ancient amphitheatre (site of the two-day Milos Festival each July). Follow the signs to the rather forlorn spot nearby where a farmer found the Venus de Milo in 1820.
