Some words for the history
All about Agios Nikolaos
Traces of prehistoric settlements have been found in the wider area of Agios Nikolaos. Northeast of today's settlement, at Pyrgos, developed in the classical years the settlement Siggos from which the Siggitikos Gulf, later called Mount Athos, separated the peninsulas of Sithonia and Athos, took its name. The modern village was formed by the Union of two settlements: Agios Nikolaos, where refugees from Mani lived, and Agios Georgios, inhabited by local Chalkidikians.
