    Hiking

    Titus Basilica with forecourt is probably the highlight of the small archaeological park. When you consider that this church has basically been there for 1,300 years, you wonder why our buildings are so dilapidated after 50 years.

    The large cross-domed church of Aǵios Títos stands directly at the entrance to the excavation site of Gortis. It dates from Byzantine times.

    Titus Basilica: Ruins of an early Christian basilica from the 6th century; only the altar area of the basilica remains, and three naves are still recognizable. The church received its name based on local tradition, attributed to its excavators in the 19th century. However, since another, older church was discovered during later excavations in the town of Mitropolis, its origin is now considered questionable.
