Before you go
What to expect
The memorial sits in a tranquil corner of Agrilia Kratigou, framed by olive trees and the low hills characteristic of inland Lesvos.

Best time to visit
Spring and early autumn are the most pleasant for a stop here, with mild temperatures and the olive groves at their greenest.
