Trizina ( Greek Τροιζήνα ( f. Sg. ), Also Trizin ) was until 2010 a municipality named after the ancient Troizen polis , which belonged to the prefecture of Piraeus .

It was merged with Methana to form the municipality of Trizinia-Methana through the 2010 administrative reform .

structure

Trizina was originally called Damalas (Δαμαλάς) and was recognized under this name in 1912 as a rural community (kinotita) . In 1929 the name was changed to the ancient name Trizin (Τροιζήν). In 1997 five municipalities in the area were incorporated and Trizina was raised to a municipal municipality (dimos) . Today they form the municipality of Galatas and five local communities in the municipality of Trizina. The population figures come from the results of the 2011 census.

location

Geographically, the municipality is in the Peloponnese and is part of the Argolis landscape . Administratively, however, it belongs to the Islands regional district of the Attica region . This takes into account the economic and transport connections of the seaside community.

In the northwest the municipality borders on Epidavros , in the north on the Saronic Gulf and the Methana peninsula , in the east on the mainland area of the municipality Poros in the south on the municipality Ermionida .

traffic

Road connections exist to the Argolis and the Isthmus of Corinth . While these land routes make the municipality seem quite remote, the ship connection from Poros , which is immediately adjacent to the municipality of Galatas and is only separated from it by a 300 m wide canal, provides a regular and fast connection to Piraeus .
