Province of Crotone, Administrative province in Calabria, Italy.

The Province of Crotone extends along the Ionian Sea coast and includes mountains of the Sila National Park and agricultural territories.

Created in 1992 from a section of Catanzaro Province, Crotone carries forward the legacy of ancient Greek settlements dating back to 710 BCE.

The provincial museums display archaeological findings from ancient Kroton, including artifacts related to the mathematician Pythagoras who established his school here.

The province connects to other regions through Crotone Airport, railway networks, and coastal highways that follow the Ionian Sea shoreline.

The remains of the Temple of Hera Lacinia at Capo Colonna mark the easternmost point of the province, standing as a testament to Greek civilization.
