When arranging a cruise stop at the visually stunning Port of Katakolon, a stopover at Ancient Olympia is not to be missed. But have you pondered about the origin of the marble statues housed at Olympia’s Museum? What distinguishes marble so that it was employed during Greek and Roman Antiquity?
Greek artisans were keen on carving their Gods from marble, but how in an art landscape ruled by pottery, painting, and structural design, did marble rise to prominence as a sculpting medium? Accompany us on this journey and pay a visit to the only marble workshop in the Peloponnese that is accessible to the public, presenting a chance to understand the craft of marble sculpting. Additionally, we will tour a local honeybee farm and delve into the universe of honey bees.
