Canal de Corinthe
The Corinth Canal links the Gulf of Corinth (Ionian Sea) with the Saronic Gulf (Aegean Sea), cutting through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth and effectively separating the Peloponnese from mainland Greece. This impressive engineering project was constructed at sea level, without locks, stretching 6.4 km (4 miles) in length and just 21.4 meters (70 feet) wide at its base — which means many large modern vessels cannot pass through it.
From the bridge above, visitors can admire breathtaking panoramic views of the isthmus and the dramatic limestone cliffs that rise steeply on either side. Watching boats carefully navigate the narrow passage below is truly a unique experience.

Corinthe antique (Archaia Korinthos)
Ancient Corinth was a major city-state located on the Isthmus of Corinth, the land bridge connecting the Peloponnese with mainland Greece. Thanks to its strategic position between Athens and Sparta, it became one of the most powerful commercial centers of antiquity.
The city is also significant in Christian history, as Saint Paul preached here and addressed the Corinthians in two epistles of the New Testament. Destroyed by the Romans in 146 BC, Corinth was rebuilt in 44 BC and later became the provincial capital of Roman Greece.

Musée archéologique de Corinthe
The Archaeological Museum of Ancient Corinth was built in 1931–1932 to house and present the important finds uncovered during excavations in the area. It is located within the archaeological site itself and is managed by the Greek Archaeological Service.
The wider site of Ancient Corinth features significant landmarks such as the Hadgimoustafa Spring, Lechaion Road, the Basilica, the Fountain of Peirene, the Stoa, the Agora, the Odeon, various temples, and the ancient Theatre.

Akrokorinthos
Acrocorinth, meaning “Upper Corinth,” is the impressive acropolis of Ancient Corinth. This massive monolithic rock rises high above the city, offering strategic views over the surrounding region.
Thanks to its natural fortification and secure water supply, the fortress of Acrocorinth served for centuries as a crucial defensive stronghold in southern Greece. Controlling the Isthmus of Corinth, it played a key role in protecting the Peloponnese from land invasions.
