About the website

vatousa.gr
  • The website vatousa.gr is the official web presence of Vatousa, the traditional and beautiful village of western Lesvos.

It is the cultural property of the Community of Vatousa, the Cultural Associations of the village, and through them also of the Vatousians everywhere.

The website is designed so that its contents concern both tourists, who want to visit and get to know the village, as well as fellow citizens of Vatousa, who want to visit their .. memories, but also to learn the village news!

The sections contain information about the village and its history, rich photographic material, historical articles, the village magazine in digital format, village news, classifieds and other information. The content and modules will be constantly updated, with the help of everyone, especially the young people of the village.

In addition to the website itself, there is also a presence on social networks, through the Village Associations, as well as a YouTube channel where videos of interesting events and activities are posted, even their live broadcast.
