This year, from 7th to 9th of June, the Ephorate of Antiquities of Halkidiki and Mount Athos is organising a visit and a guided tour to the archaeological site of Prophet Elias at Arnea village. Next, there will be a tour to the temple of St. Stefen which is the only church in Greece, that operates normally, serving the needs of the pilgrims, and at the same time is built over important antiquities of priceless historical value, that are visible in their most part.
