Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Gortynia, of which it is a municipal unit. The seat of the municipality was the village Lagkadia. The village Lagkadia is situated on a mountain slope, at about 1000 m elevation. It is 5 km east of Lefkochori, 10 km north of Dimitsana and 36 km northwest of Tripoli. The Greek National Road 74 (Pyrgos – Olympia – Tripoli) passes through the village.
The village has a school, a church, a post office, and a square. It is known for its local weaving mill.[citation needed] Lagkadia used to be famous in Greece mainly about its builders (called pelekanoi), that made stone-built houses all over the Peloponnese peninsula, and especially in Mani.[citation needed] Kanellos Deligiannis, one of the many heroes of the Greek War of Independence against the Turks in 1821, was born here.
