Arta (Greek: Άρτα) is a city with a rich history in north-western Greece, capital of the Arta Prefecture which is part of the Epirus province. The city was known in ancient times as Amvrakia (Greek: Αμβρακία). Arta is famous for its old bridge located over the Arachthos river, situated west of downtown. Arta is also known for its ancient sites from the era of Pyrrhus of Epirus and its 13th century old castle, one of the best preserved in Greece. Arta's rich Byzantine history can be also traced today via its many Byzantine churches; perhaps best known is the church of the Panayía Parigorítissa (Mother of God the Swiftly Consoling), built about 1290 by Despot Nikephoros. The city is the seat of the Technological Educational Institute of Epirus. Image File history File links Metadata No higher resolution available. ...

In 295 BC Pyrrhus of Epirus, king of the Molossians transferred the capital of his kingdom to Amvrakia, which he used as a base from which he attacked the Romans. Pyrrhus managed to achieve great but costly victories against the Romans and he became famous for the phrase "Pyrrhic victory" which refers to an exchange at the Battle of Asculum. In 146 BC Amvrakia became part of the Roman empire and the province of Epirus was renamed Epirus Vetus, to distinguish it from Epirus Nova to the east.

Byzantine/Ottoman Era - Further information: Byzantine Greece and Ottoman Greece
In 1204 after the fall of Constantinople to the Crusaders, it became the capital of the Despotate of Epirus. The Despotate of Epirus extended up to Dyrrhachium, and included the entire north-western Greece and regions of Thessaly and north-western Macedonia. Its founder was Michael I Komnenos Doukas (1205-1215), relative of the imperial Byzantine family of Komnenos. After brief conquests of the city by the Italian dynasty of Orsini (1318-1337), Serbian Empire (1337 - 1359), Albanian clans (1359-1416) and Italian rulers (Carlo II Tocco, Leonardo III Tocco), the Ottoman Turks conquered it in 1449 and renamed her name as "Narda". She was occupied by Venetians in 1717 and Frenchs in 1797. Ottomans reoccupied her in 1799. The city was eventually liberated from the Ottomans and annexed to Greece in 1881 by the terms of Treaty of Berlin, which was signed in 1878. She shortly occupied by Ottomans during Greco-Turkish War in 1897. Byzantine Empire (Greek: ÎÏ

Byzantine
Late 13th century Church of the Parigoritria The castle of Arta was built by Michael II Komnenos Doukas in the middle of 13th century. It is representative of Byzantine architecture and is well preserved. The most important Byzantine church is the Church of Parigoritria that was built during 1285-89 by Nikephoros I Komnenos Doukas and his wife Anna Palaiologina Catacuzene. The church of Saint Theodora is another fine example of Byzantine architecture. It is dedicated to the protector of Arta and is the only surviving department of the abbey that was founded in the 13th century by the queen of the Despotate of Epirus, Theodora in honour of Saint George, functioning as a nunnery. After the death of her husband, Theodora herself became a nun, and was buried there and the temple is honoured in her name. Other important Byzantine monuments include the churches of Saint Basil (Hagios Vasilios), the Abbey of Kato Panagia, Hagios Vasilios of the Bridge, Panagia Vlaherna, Panagia Brioni in Neohoraki, Saint Demetrius Katsouri in Plisioi, the Red Church in Vourgareli, Panagia of Koronisia in Koronisia and the church of Pantanassa in Filippiada.
