The hill of Kolona, a 10 minute walk north of Aegina town, was inhabited from prehistoric times through the classical period. Extensive walls and foundations have been discovered and excavations are still in process.

The standin column is all that remains of a
temple of Apollo of the classical period. At the
entrance to the site is a mosaic floor surviving
from a 7th century synagoque.

The Archaeological Museum contains a small
but rich collection of pottery and sculture from
all periods of Aegina's history. It houses the
sphinx of Aegina dating back to 400 BCE.

The site is open every day except Monday.
