Geography - History
Chrysopigi is located on the northern borders with the Regional Unit of Arta and the northern slopes of Makrynoros. It is 52 km N.-NE. from Amfilochia and 30.5 km E.-SE. from Arta. Its old name, during the Turkish occupation, is Paleokoutsi[3] which means that the surrounding area had no productive lands. The settlement was developed around 1770 to 1840 mainly by nomads from Epirus who were then under Turkish rule[4] and thus it was mentioned in 1928 as belonging to the then community of Floriada. In 1953, with Official Gazette 86A - 11/04/1953, it was renamed Chrysopigi[5]. According to the Kallikratis plan, together with Floriada, Elaiophyto, Katharovouni, Kastriotissa, Palaia Floriada, Paleokastro and Chrysorrachi, they form the Local Community of Floriada which belongs to the Municipal Unit of Menidi of the Municipality of Amfilochia and according to the 2011 census has population 231 inhabitants[6].
