Ancient Quarries of Marble

1 review of Ancient Quarries of Marble

Worth a visit

The ancient quarries of Marble are situated on the outskirts of Marathi just off the highway. Despite being abandoned, it´s worth a visit. It´s the only place in Paros where there was transparent marble used in the manufacture of masterpieces like Hermes of Praxiteles and the Venus de Milo. You´ll see some abandoned houses first and eventually you´ll come to the entrance of the quarry.
