Description:
Akraifnio (Greek: Ακραίφνιο, before 1933: Καρδίτσα - Karditsa) is a village in Boeotia, Greece. It was the seat of the former municipality Akraifnia, which is a municipal unit of the municipality Orchomenos since the 2011 local government reform. Population 1,256 (2001).

Akraifnio was named after the ancient city Acraephia. Acraephia was an ancient Greek city (polis) on the eastern shore of Lake Copais. The ruins are about a mile from the modern village. There was a sanctuary there to Acraephian or Ptoan Apollo with an oracle. When Alexander razed Thebes those who were too weak or old to move to Attica settled at Acraphnium.
