The capital of the island, on the western side, is also the main port. In this picturesque small town, you will find a wide variety of cafes, restaurants, traditional taverns, shops, along its coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udc49 Don&#039;t let the lack surprise you <a rel=\"pon ored nofollow sponsored nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/airalo.tpk.mx\/Zk8iKJ4f\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/airalo.tpk.mx\/Zk8iKJ4f\">internet<\/a> while exploring the world!

Zeus kidnapped her and took her to the island that was then called <strong>Enona<\/strong>. There she gave birth to his son. <strong>Echo<\/strong>, the first king of the island and the grandfather of the legendary Trojan hero <strong>Achilles<\/strong>. Ek renamed the island to <strong>Aegina<\/strong>, in honor of his mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Najstariji_tragovi\"><\/span>The oldest traces<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Archaeological finds in <strong>Colonies<\/strong>, near today&#039;s capital of the island, confirm that Aegina was inhabited as early as <strong>Neolithic (around 3000 BC)<\/strong>. During the Bronze Age, the island was an important trading center, connected to the Clades, Crete and the Greek mainland. Its inhabitants were engaged in trade, seafaring and agriculture, and in honor of the gods they built temples. The remains of the temple have been preserved to this day <strong>Apollo in Colonna<\/strong> and the temple <strong>Elania of Zeus<\/strong> in the interior of the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1025\" height=\"561\" src=\"https:\/\/putovanje.in.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Egina.png\" alt=\"Znamenitost na Egini \u2013 malo ostrvo, velika iznena\u0111enja\" class=\"wp-image-6761\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:600px;height:350px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/putovanje.in.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Egina.png 1025w, https:\/\/putovanje.in.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Egina-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/putovanje.in.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Egina-768x420.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1025px) 100vw, 1025px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Zlatno_doba_%E2%80%93_Ostrvo_Egina\"><\/span>Golden Age \u2013 Aegina Island<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The real rise of Aegina began in <strong>6th and 7th centuries BC.<\/strong>, when the island became one of the strongest naval powers of Greece. His trade extended to <strong>Egypt and Phoenicia<\/strong>, and Aegina was also <strong>the first place in Greece, and even in Europe, to mint its own coins<\/strong>. These were the famous silver coins with the motif <strong>turtles<\/strong>, which was the symbol of the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At that time, the island was extremely rich and experienced a real boom. His fleet played a key role in <strong>Battle of Salamis (480 BC)<\/strong>, when the Greeks won a decisive victory over the Persians. After that, the island continues to flourish - then it was raised and magnificent <strong>Temple of Aphaia<\/strong>, one of the most beautiful ancient sanctuaries in Greece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sukob_sa_Atinom\"><\/span>Conflict with Athens<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the wealth and power of Aegina aroused the envy of the Athenians. Years <strong>459 BC.<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/putovanje.in.rs\/en\/atina-grcka\/\">Athens<\/a> invades the island, forces its inhabitants to tear down the city walls and surrender the fleet. With this, Aegina loses its independence and begins a period of decline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Novi_vladari\"><\/span>New rulers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like the rest of Greece, the island later came under the rule of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Macedonians<\/strong> (Philip II and <a href=\"https:\/\/putovanje.in.rs\/en\/aleksandar-veliki\/\">Alexander the Great<\/a>),<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ptolemy in Egypt<\/strong>,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Romans<\/strong>,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Byzantium<\/strong>,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Venetian<\/strong>,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>and finally <strong>Ottoman Empire<\/strong>, which lasted until the Revolution of 1821.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Savremena_istorija\"><\/span>Modern history<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During <strong>Greek War of Independence<\/strong>, Aegina played a significant role. From <strong>1827 to 1829<\/strong> the island was <strong>the temporary capital of liberated Greece<\/strong>. In that period, numerous important institutions were built: the first gymnasium in Greece and <strong>Eunardios School<\/strong>, founded by Swiss banker Jean-Gabriel Einar. He also worked on the island <strong>Yannis Kapodistrias<\/strong>, the first president of independent Greece, and many buildings from that period still adorn the town of Aegina today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, when the modern Greek state was created in 1830 with the capital in Nauplion (and later in Athens), Aegina lost its political importance. Since then, she has developed a new identity - as <strong>famous pistachio producer<\/strong>, by which the island is now recognized all over the world.<\/p><div id=\"putov-3008827680\"
