This is the most important Greek bridge known for its unique architecture. It is also well-known in Greece, the Balkans and other countries because of the legend of the master builder.

The history of the bridge starts even before the Roman times, perhaps back in the era of King Pyrrhus of Epirus.

The bridge of Arta has been repaired many times and additions have been made. The last one was in 1612. Many folklore studies have been published and theatrical plays and operas have been produced based on the legend of the bridge.

Property of Komninoi-Doukes family (13th century). When it went bankrupt it became part of the Church of Kato Panagia. The first time the church is mentioned as a nunnery is on the signet of Patriarch Jeremiah II (1578).

Tzoumerka mountains are located between the prefectures of Arta and Ioannina. Katafidi is the highest summit (2.393m.) and Kakarditsa and Lakmo are the most important mountain ranges in the region. One of the characteristics of the mountain range is the steep edges, mainly along the west side. The east side is not that steep and thus, easier for winter ascents.
