“Georgena Hole" Cave
"Georgena Hole" Cave is located at Atravani at a distance of 3 km from Dafni, Krokees, outside Sparta.
The cave area is covered by bushy forest vegetation and was explored by Anna Petrocheilou as the leader of the project. The cave has been designated a Touristic Monument of National Interest. Its greatest length extends from northeast to southwest and is 45 metres, while its most extended depth reaches 34 metres. The second floor of the cave is divided into four large chambers with rich decoration of stalactites, stalagmites and massive columns.
There are two versions as far as the history of the cave is concerned. According to the first, it is said that bandit Georgena Parthymou hid her treasures inside the cave. According to the second version, Georgena took refuge there with her children to be saved by Ibrahim. In fact, there is information that human bones were found in the cave, which probably belonged to Giorgena.
