Municipal Unit of Lefkada

Municipal Unit of Lefkada lies along the Ionian Sea coast of Lefkada Island, where the low northern plain rises toward olive-covered hills and a rugged interior. It includes Lefkada Town, the island’s administrative centre, beside the narrow channel that separates Lefkada from mainland Greece. A causeway and swing bridge create a direct road link to Aetolia-Acarnania, an unusual feature among the Ionian Islands. Lefkada Town also preserves a building tradition shaped by earthquakes, with lightweight timber-framed upper structures and corrugated-metal cladding adopted for greater resilience.
