About this venue

The Tower of Markellos is a pink historic watchtower on the island of Aegina. After Greek independence it served as the seat of the Greek government, later housing the police headquarters and other government agencies. It was acquired by the municipality of Aegina, which partially renovated it. Today it houses the Kapodistrian Cultural Center and the Alexiou Centre for Social Issues, and is sometimes used as a gallery space for art exhibitions.
