Pyrgos, Boeotia

Pyrgos (Greek: Πύργος Βοιωτίας) is a small village in Boeotia, possible site of Homeric Nisa (Iliad 2.508).

[2] It is named after a ruined medieval tower, with a notable Mycenaean element, that overlooks the village from a nearby hill.

The hill is dedicated to Agia Marina Pyrgos, or St. Marina of Pyrgos.

The town forms part of the municipality of Orchomenos.
