In the context of this master's thesis, the digital representation of archaeological sites is presented, and in particular the creation of a 3D model of the chapel of Agios Christophoros in the castle of Mystras and its integration into a Virtual Reality environment. The construction was implemented after field research conducted in the archaeological site of Mystras, and the collection of the necessary archaeological data related to the condition of the chapel today. Through this project, the digital tools available to the archaeologist of the 21st century are highlighted, which can be used in combination with traditional research methods. In this way, the protection, promotion and enhancement of the cultural heritage and the physiognomy of a site is achieved and at the same time, the interdisciplinary nature of research is promoted. Furthermore, the digital construction offers direct access for everyone to the chapel, as the user can browse in it at any time, observe it and get to know the Byzantine architecture of Mystras, fostering their relationship with the cultural heritage.
