What you need to know
- Museum five minutes away on foot, holding the finds from the site, including votive statues of children
- Temple, spring and chapel sit side by side: the temple platform, the pool of the sacred spring and the small church of Agios Georgios
- Rocky bay, no beach, since the Vravrona gulf is rocky and poor for swimming, so swim at nearby Artemida (Loutsa) or Porto Rafti
About
The Sanctuary of Artemis at Brauron is where young Athenian girls once served the goddess as "she-bears", dancing and running races in saffron robes.
Kids can walk the restored Doric stoa, peek into its dining rooms with stone tables and cuttings for couch legs, and cross the only known Classical stone bridge in Greece, with cart wheel ruts still worn into its slabs.
