Furthermore, Polydendri is known for its taverns. The municipal unit has a land area of 13.881 km² and also includes the villages of Taxiárches (pop. 116), Irakleideís (68), and Ágios Geórgios (39). Its total population was 1,608 at the 2011 census.
==History==
During ancient times, the entire north Attica area was called ''Afidnes''. During the Middle Ages, the inhabitants of the village were Scandinavian shepherds that reached the village at the end of the 9th century. There are many questions concerning the reasons that made those Vikings reach the north of Attica, but there are still remains of their civilization (a dozen buildings around the river, at the southeast of the village, have Viking architecture). During the years of the Ottoman Empire, a clan of Arvanites approached the north of Attica and after brief combat, they controlled the village, which had a very important strategic position for the defense of the city of Athens.
