Location

Mytilene is the capital of the island of Lesvos as well as the administrative centre of the North Aegean region of Greece. It also features the headquarters of the University of the Aegean. Both the island and the city have long and rich histories. At the same time, they have been the birth or living places of many notable personalities, spanning from Sappho, Epicurus and Theophrastus in ancient times, to painter Theophilos, Nobel Laureate Odysseas Elytis and writer Stratis Myrivilis in modern ones.



There are many notable landmarks to visit in Mytilene, indicatively, the impressive Baroque church of St. Therapon, the Theophilos museum, the Catholic church of Theotokos, where the relics of St. Valentine are kept, as well as the archaeological museum and the Byzantine museum. Mytilene is also famous for its 'ouzeri', traditional Greek taverns serving ouzo and titbits and many restaurants that cater to every taste and budget.



The international Airport of Lesvos has connections to many, mostly European cities, with scheduled flights on a daily basis, especially during the summer months. Lesvos can also be reached by ferry, both from Piraeus (journey time 13 h) and Thessaloniki (journey time 10 h).
