Zurück zu NachrichtenThe ancient archaeological site of Eleutherna, in the Rethymno regional unit of Crete, recently hosted the closing night of a festival featuring the world premiere of "Corybantes," a dance performance inspired by the myth of Zeus and the Kouretes. The show drew large crowds and received international attention. The Kouretes were legendary guardians said to have protected the infant Zeus in Cretan caves, making Eleutherna a fitting backdrop for the production. Ancient Eleutherna is one of Crete's most significant archaeological sites, located roughly 25 kilometres southeast of Rethymno. The site is accessible by car and features an active excavation museum. Visitors interested in attending future performances at the site should check the Eleutherna Museum website or local cultural listings in Rethymno for upcoming events and ticketing information.
