It is 42 km southwest of Corinth, built at 740 m height, in the slopes of Velisa mountain (part of Cyllene mountain). Kryoneri is part of the municipality of Sikyona. The village was flown through by a stream, tributary of Elisson River.[2][3] Kryoneri has panoramic view towards northeast Corinthia until the coasts of Saronic and Corinthian gulf. Its population is 868 inhabitants according to 2011 census. HistoryThe first name of the settlement was Mergeni, which possibly means grass land.[3] This name derived from the Franks who dominated the Peloponnese during the 13th and 14th centuries. The current name was given in 1954 which means a place with cold water. The village took part in the Greek War of Independence, where a chieftain from Kryoneri with the surname Stergiopoulos is mentioned.[2] Historical population
