A special evening

November 12 was a special day in the calendar of the Cella Septichora Visitor Centre. After the usual closing time (6 o'clock) all the lights were turned off. Darkness fell upon the cemetery. A special view offered itself: nothing but little candles lit the remaining walls of the seven-apsidal Cella Septichora. For the first time a guided tour was organized in the unlighted visitor centre. Entering the cemetery everybody was given a head lamp and could look at the place in a new light.  It was an exceptional opportunity to discover the hidden secrets of the mysterious place and feel the spirit of it. Furthermore, the participants were given a taste of the antique clothing since the guide was wearing an authentic Roman tunic.
