Legendary fortress of Agamemnon. He led the Greeks...

Legendary fortress of Agamemnon. He led the Greeks into the fight for Troy. His brother, King Menelaus of Sparta and Odyseus, King of Ithaca, accompanied him on his campaign. Likewise the heroes Nestor, Ajax and Achill. Fascinated by the story, written down by Homer in his Iliad, Schliemann began his excavations here. He found the famous "gold mask of Agamemnon" in the tomb round A, which, however, does not come from this legendary king. If you then walk through the ruins of the "Lion Gate", the story, legends and legends become comprehensible. You will be rewarded after a steep climb to the castle with a great view. Best to be there early at the opening time, then the rush is not so big. If the entry seems too expensive, you should stay at home. Very nicely worked up the museum, which one should not miss.
