Nikopolis is a very important archaeological site next to Preveza. Preveza is a town in the region of Epirus, northwestern Greece. Ancient Nikopolis (Victory City) was founded by the Roman Emperor Octavian to commemorate his victory against Mark Antony and Queen Cleopatra of Egypt.
Within the archaeological site one can see many ruins of great significance such as the Roman fortifications, the Odeon, the Theater, the Nymfaion, the “Vassilospito” and others.
The Nikopolis archaeological site is open for visitors.
The Archaeological Museum of Nicopolis is built near the site and
displays exhibits of the city in Roman and Early Christian times.
