About Marathon (Marathonas):
As one of the most renowned historic areas worldwide, Marathon offers its guests unique emotions with its monuments and archaeological places, but also with the natural beauty of its landscapes. It is the only city that has given its name to an Olympic sport, generously offering a priceless heritage.
It is a rural municipality featuring a plain of 13,600 acres. Thanks to its distinct morphology, it combines mountains overlooking the Attica basin and seaside areas, expanding over a coastline of more than 40 kilometers – one of the longest in Greece – with numerous spectacular beaches all along.
The fame of Marathon is due to the homonymous battle in September of 490 B.C. between the Athenians (along with the Plataeans) and Persians, which changed the course of human history. Its name seems to derive from the local hero, Marathon, as well as – allegedly – from marathos (fennel), a herb that was thriving in this area during ancient times.
The historical monuments and archaeological sites accumulated in this area, constitute a pole of attraction for visitors from all over the world. The most popular ones include the Marathon Tomb, the Archaeological Museum of Marathon, the Archaeological Site of Rhamnous, the Early Helladic Cemetery of Vranas and the Marathon Lake with its historic dam.
