Outbuildings and Ruins of Greek temples in the Garden of the Mon Repose Palace at Kerkyra, Corfu, Greece

---

The Mon Repos villa was originally built as the summer residence for the British Lord High Commissioner and, incidentally, also the birthplace of Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh. Inside the Paleopoli, in the middle of the gardens, there is the Mon Repos palace which was built in 1924 by High Commissioner Frederick Adam and became later property of the Greek royal family. Today it is a Museum that collects the various archaeological finds of this area, Byzantine relics, furnishings and garments of the age of British finds date back to the period between 1936 and 1955 when also a Christian basilica and some sections of the ancient Agora have been discovered. A Doric Temple is to be found in the forest garden of the Palace and a horse riding therapeutic centre can also be visited
