Services
Belles WWII Memorial Center
At the southeastern foothills of Mount Belles, in Neo Petritsi, stands the Belles WWII Memorial Center. It is a place that goes beyond displaying artifacts; it tells the story of the Battle of the Forts through authentic heirlooms, photographs, documents and personal accounts. The daily life of the soldiers, the construction of the Metaxas Line and the crucial moments of April 1941 come to life with emotion. Visitors travel through the galleries with VR experiences, listen to testimonies and feel the pulse of those days, in a space where memory becomes a living experience.
Roupel Pass
Roupel Pass is not a simple visit; it is a descent into time, a place where history does not merely recount its events but whispers them through stone, earth and tunnels. The route begins on the battlefields of April 1941, where the Metaxas Line was tested and its defenders honored their oath. The path then leads into the underground network of the fort, through chambers and dark corridors that still hold the breath of that era. The landscape and its memories extend into the present, reminding us that history here remains alive.
Customized Guided Tours
For those who wish to explore the Metaxas Line at their own pace and with real depth, we offer personalized tours of the Belles and Agistro forts. We don’t follow preset routes; we design together an experience that matches your interests and the way you like to travel. With guides who know the land, the history and the people, you discover not only the events and operations of 1941, but also the human stories behind the tunnels and pillboxes. If you wish, the day can end with a quiet walk and a small picnic in nature.
Treasure Hunt & Team Building
In a vibrant historical setting, children become young explorers and take part in an interactive Treasure Hunt that sparks imagination and curiosity. Inside the tunnels they search for clues, solve riddles and uncover stories of soldiers, realizing that history is not something distant but alive all around them. With the support of our instructors, learning turns into adventure, filled with cooperation and excitement.
For corporate groups, the same route transforms into a team-building program, where participants test their communication and teamwork skills in an environment that inspires, brings people together and leaves a lasting impression.
