In the Antiquity Eresos prospered and it is the birthplace of the lyrical poetess Sappho (circa 628-568 BC).
Eresos is also the birthplace of Theophrastus (circa 372-277 BC), pupil of Plato and successor of his teacher Aristotle in the management of the well-known Peripatetic School.
In 1462 Lesbos fell into the hands of the Turks and in the 17th century the village transferred 4 km inland to avoid the multiple attacks from the pirates, and created the village of Eressos, leaving Skala to the fishermen.
