According to a rumour in the years 1920, famous gangsters Jerome and Al Capone did a secret trip in Greece (Jerome was from Harakas near Kyparissi), they came to Leonidio and stayed “above the city in a little house against the rock “… nobody know exactly where, maybe the house -now a ruin- at the base of Aresos?
