    The small village was destroyed by an earthquake. Today some people are returning and rebuilding the houses or building new houses.

    The ruins belong to the village
    Drakopoulata.


    Drakopoulata is one of the many mountain villages of Kefalonia, which was severely destroyed by the catastrophic Ionian earthquake in August 1953. Most residents left the village after this event, making it a "ghost town".

    The village is located on the slopes of Mount Agia Dynati. Amidst the ruins stands the church of Agios Minas, a structure from before the earthquake that has withstood the forces of nature.
