Λυκαβήττος

Lycabettus

Mount Lycabettus is a hill in the Greek capital of Athens. At 300 meters above sea level, it’s the highest point in Athens. The hill is a tourist destination and can be ascended by the Lycabettus funicular, railway.

Mythologically, Lycabettus is credited to Athena, who created it when she dropped a limestone mountain she had been carrying when she heard bad news from a crow. Since then, crows are turned black, according to the legend. On the hill is the Lycabettus theatre, an open modern amphitheater in which concerts and theatrical performances used to take place.

There are two small churches up to the hill: the famous whitewashed Saint George of the 18 th century at the top and the smaller and lesser-known church of Saint Isidore on the west side. From the sanctuary of the small church begins a cave which ends in Turkovounia, feeding the urban legends about the underground tunnels of Athens and providing a safe passage in war times. The Lycabettus theatre was built in 1965, covering one of the quarries on the hill.
