Limnaea

Limnaea (Greek: Λιμναία, also transliterated as Limnaia) is an archaeological site in Akarnania, Greece.

The ruins of ancient Limnaea are located on a low hill, overlooking the Ambracian Gulf above the modern town of Amphilochia. 

The fortified hill commands the strategic passage that connects Ambracia and Epiros to ancient Stratos, Agrinion and the rest of Acarnania and Aetolia. 

The site today is largely abandoned and open for visit through a rough, and very precarious, cement road. The ancient wall is visible all around the small church atop the hill in scattered ruins.
