The port of Kassiopi is now devoted to mass tourism. But that's no reason to forget that Cicero and Ptolemy once stopped here. This picturesque seaside town lies at the foot of Mount Pantocrator (37 km from Corfu), on the site of a flourishing Roman city with a harbour, theater and temple dedicated to Jupiter Cassius (hence its name). It was on the site of this temple that the church of Panagia Kassiopitissa was later erected, destroyed during the siege of 1537 and rebuilt in 1590, and now houses a 17th-century icon of the Virgin and Christ.
