Nicopolis Museum

Nicopolis is an ancient city that was built on 31 B.C by Octavios after the batle of Aktio. If you translate it from Greek to English Nicopolis, means the city of victory. It is placed just outside the town of Preveza. It is great for someone that is interested in ancient history to visit that place. Also the museum that they recently built near the ancient city of Nicopolis is one of the most moderate and intresting musuems in Greece.

The site is where Augustus founded the city after defeating Mark Antony and Cleopatra at the Battle of Actium. The museum is located near the site and can be visited with the same ticket. The museum has a rich collection of exhibits, from the 1st century BC to the 7th century AD. Exceptional early Christian mosaics can be seen on the site.

The Watermill Museum

Reviewed By DeniseN1047 - Dover, United Kingdom

After catching the train from the beach we were taken slowly up into the hills scenery was lovely as we wound our way up to the water mill. The gentleman, proudly spoke of how his grandfather made a home for his family and with their neighbour's produced bread and fresh running water to all the people around them. Very interesting and informative about how hard they had to work. On show some of the original tools equipment used and some he made himself. With lots of work still to do he plans to get it back to how it was when he was just a young boy. Very proud man who with help of his family and friends Hope's to make this a working museum once again. Old photos of his relatives on the walls made it so easy to help you go back in time, to how it was. Would recommend this trip, and would do it again if I went back to Parga
