Archaeological site
4.3/5
4 reviews

This site (Археолошки Локалитет Хераклеа Линкестис/Arheološki Lokalitet Heraklea Linkestis) houses some of the remains of the city of Iraklia Lykistis ("Lynx Heraclea" in Greek), founded by Philip II of Macedonia in the mid-4th century BC. Most of the visible features date from the late Roman era, including a theater and a large early Christian basilica. Unfortunately, the site is poorly promoted (no explanatory panels) and its most beautiful mosaic was damaged in 2022.
