Step into the Living History of Corfu at Casa Parlante Museum

Located in the heart of Corfu’s Old Town, Casa Parlante is not just a museum — it’s a journey back in time. Housed in a 19th-century noble mansion, this unique museum brings Corfu’s aristocratic past to life through animated figures, authentic furniture, and period details that recreate the daily life of a noble family.

You'll walk through elegantly decorated rooms, hear the sounds of the household, and even smell the aromas of traditional recipes being "prepared" in the kitchen. Every corner tells a story — from the Count reading the newspaper in his study to the children playing music in the salon.

Casa Parlante is a must-visit for anyone looking to experience the culture, elegance, and history of Corfu in a vivid and interactive way. It’s an unforgettable experience for adults and children alike!

Η Πρώτη Ανάσταση στην Κέρκυρα: Ένα μοναδικό έθιμο με παγκόσμια φήμη

Το πρωί του Μεγάλου Σαββάτου, η Κέρκυρα ζει μια από τις πιο εντυπωσιακές στιγμές του Πάσχα: την Πρώτη Ανάσταση. Με το χτύπημα των καμπάνων, οι Κερκυραίοι ρίχνουν τους περίφημους «μπότηδες» – μεγάλα πήλινα κανάτια – από τα μπαλκόνια, κυρίως στην πλατεία Σπιανάδα, σκορπίζοντας παντού τον ήχο της χαράς και της αναγέννησης. Το έθιμο συμβολίζει τη νίκη της ζωής επί του θανάτου και προσελκύει χιλιάδες επισκέπτες κάθε χρόνο, μετατρέποντας το νησί σε επίκεντρο του εορτασμού της Ορθόδοξης Ανάστασης.

The "First Resurrection" in Corfu: A Unique Easter Tradition

On the morning of Holy Saturday, Corfu celebrates one of the most iconic moments of Greek Easter: the First Resurrection. As church bells ring joyfully, locals throw large clay pots—known as botides—from their balconies, especially around Spianada Square. The loud crashing sound symbolizes the triumph of life over death and marks the beginning of the Resurrection celebrations. This spectacular tradition draws thousands of visitors each year and showcases Corfu’s rich cultural and religious heritage.
