FOLEGANDROS > HISTORY

HISTORY History Folegandros Island Cyclades Greek Islands Greece

The island's history is not very well known in detail, but there is evidence that it was inhabited at a very early stage. In the 2nd Millenia BC it was probably under Minoan, Cretan, rule.

Later on, in the 8th century BC, the island was settled by Dorians, a Greek tribe from the north.

The island shared the same fate as almost all the Cyclades islands in the 13th century AD, when the Venetians invaded and made the area a duchy of their own, with Naxos as the centre.

This lasted for more than 400 years, when the Turks conquered Greece.

Folegandros was liberated in the 19th century after the war of Independance had broken out.
