Kalloni is located in the geographical center of Lesvos. It is blessed by nature and embraced by the waters of its bay. Its lush 100 square kilometer plain with its six rivers supplies it with abundant commodities. Underground and spring waters irrigate its grapevines and gardens. And its historical monasteries have stood by it as vigilant guards at the crossroads through which the island’s main roads have always passed. Nothing has changed here since antiquity.
In recent decades, the town of Kalloni has grown considerably as a commercial center. It is the seat of the Municipality, which consists of the settlements of Agra, Anemotia, Arisvi, Dafia, Kerami, Parakoila, Skalohori, and Filia.
