Artists, hagiographers, writers, poets, scholars, musicians and architects have left a rich legacy to Corfu: their work.

 

The cultural heritage of previous centuries is carried on today by some very significant people. Who are they and what are their activities?

Corfu's Philharmonic orchestras are world-famous. Which are they, when and what they play.

In a Corfu reminiscent of the setting for a dream, the shows and concerts could only take place in similar surroundings. Where to see the events all year round.

 

In the artist's Corfu there are many places where work is on display that is of more than local interest.

The religious beliefs of the Corfiots, and Saint Spiridon.

All the procession.

When they take place and why.
