Δημοτική Ενότητα Αλιάρτου

Few towns in Central Greece have a history as closely tied to the changing waters of Lake Copais as Aliartos. The modern settlement stands on Boeotia’s broad Kopaida plain, beneath the slopes of Mount Helicon; the lake that once filled much of this basin was drained in the late 19th century, leaving cultivated land and canals. Nearby are the remains of ancient Haliartus, a Boeotian city whose position on the former lakeshore shaped its development. Aliartos is also close to Orchomenus, noted for its Mycenaean tholos tomb and ancient theatre.
