Agios Nikolaos is the capital of the Lasithi prefecture, and is situated on the west side of the Mirabello gulf. Its name came from the small church that is located in Agios Nikolaos’ bay. Another known toponym, and the one that some locals use, is Gialos.
The area’s finances depend mostly on tourism and olive cultivation.
The paleontological collection of the Municipality of Rethymnon, which consists of findings from excavations from all over the prefecture by German scientist Siegfired Kuss (University of Freiburg), will form the basis of the exhibition. The Goulandris foundation has been looking after this collection in collaboration with the University of Athens (Historical Geology and Palaeontology Faculty).
The aim of the exhibition is not only to provide info on the games in ancient times, but also to initiate the visitor in what the Olympics were.
Heraklion is not just a city in the next visitor’s destination. Expresses something more, something deeper, a history of thousands of years. With this thought must learn the traveler to "read" the area beyond the mundane habits that require a visit to museums or at Knossos.
