Manesi

Lovely village on the minor road Kalavryta - Patras, 21km west of Kalavryta. It took its name from the Manesi family that first inhabited the village. The old location of the village was in the foothills of the Erymanthos at the 'Palio Manesi' site. At the beginning of the 20th century, the village was the centre of the region, providing administrative services, a market and Greek school. Today, the village numbers around 200 residents.
