Due to the importance of the Thermaikos Gulf and its residential advantages, numerous settlements developed around it, starting in the Neolithic Era and the Bronze Age, as evidenced by those excavated in the area of the Thessaloniki International Fair, Stavroupolis, Thermi and Ano Toumba. Archaeologists have also unearthed sites from the Iron Age and the later eras (9th-4th century BC) in Karabournaki, Thermi, Polichni and Sindos. According to sources, these settlements comprised the 26 towns that united to form the city. Thessaloniki was founded as an urban centre by Cassander, a general of Philip II, in 316 BC. This action was part of the residential policy of Alexander the Great’s successors, aiming at the creation of powerful cities at key locations to ensure communication between the state of Macedon and the rest of the world. An organised port in Thessaloniki was necessary due to the rapid increase in commerce and communication with distant lands. The administrative organisation of the city during the Hellenistic era followed the model employed in other Greek cities. It retained a type of administrative autonomy after its conquest by the Romans, who contributed to its rapid growth. The construction of Via Egnatia (146-120 BC), connecting Dyrrachium to Evros, helped elevate Thessaloniki to a major commercial, cultural and military centre. During his tenure as Caesar, Tetrarch Gaius Galerius Valerius Maximianus (250-311 AD) established his seat in Thessaloniki, constructing a magnificent palace, a hippodrome and a triumphal arch (Camara) and turning the city into capital of the Balkans. The stay of Constantine the Great in Thessaloniki in 322-323 coincides with the implementation of large-scale works in the city, such as the port at its south- western end. The 4th century was one of great changes for the city, characterised by the pre-eminence of Christianity, at least three centuries after the visit of Paul the Apostle to the city, and marked at its end, in 390, by the massacre of thousands of Thessalonians at the city hippodrome on the orders of Emperor Theodosius I. By the end of the 5th century, the Roman city had been transformed into a centre of Christianity. The historical character of Thessaloniki is undoubtedly linked to its Byzantine life. The walls and extant inscriptions record the tumultuous history of the city. The walled city and its monuments could reasonably be described as an open Byzantine museum. From the 7th to the 10th centuries, notwithstanding all the problems that the Byzantine Empire would face with the West, the Arabs, the Slavs, the Bulgarians and the Byzantine Iconoclasm, Thessaloniki continued to develop in all ways, often playing a leading role, thus demonstrating its great importance and position within reached its culmination in 1922, with the Treaty of Lausanne and the decision for an exchange of populations leading to an influx of thousands of refugees from Asia Minor. At the same time, the city lost its Muslim population. Although the damage from the fire had not been restored, refugees settled in churches, in gutted buildings, at unused corners of the city walls, at military camps abandoned by the Allies. However, above all, new settlements, new neighbourhoods and new suburbs were formed. Thessaloniki once consisted of 26 ancient towns; the new Thessaloniki now extended across the centuries and throughout new settlements. The former Co-reigning City became the Refugee Capital. In 1926, the University of Thessaloniki was founded and the first Thessaloniki International Fair was held. The city recovered and began writing new pages in its history. The ‘May of 1936’ was shocking for Thessaloniki, as strikes and demonstrations were bathed in blood. The German occupation began in 1941, adding dark pages to the local history. In 1943, thousands of Thessaloniki Jews were transported by train to Nazi concentration camps and the community of the city was all but annihilated. The subsequent Civil War also had an impact on the city. After World War II, Thessaloniki became a pole of attraction once more. It experienced a wave of urbanism and the need to house new arrivals. Pre-war buildings that had been preserved were demolished and the image of the city changed once more: apartment buildings became the norm. In 1963, Grigoris Lambrakis was murdered in Thessaloniki. This assassination was immortalised by Vassilis Vassilikos in his novel ‘Z’ and became known throughout the world thanks to the film of the same name by Costas Gavras. The generally volatile political situation in the country led to the military coup of 1967, which ushered in seven years of dictatorship. In 1978, the city suffered a powerful earthquake, leaving in its wake ruins and casualties. During the 1990s, with the dissolution of the Eastern Bloc, numerous economic immigrants arrived in the city. In 1997, Thessaloniki was the European Capital of Culture. In 2012, the city celebrated the 100-year anniversary of its liberation and won the title of European Youth Capital for 2014. the structure of the state. It was the Balkan gateway for the ideological, cultural and religious influence of the Byzantine Empire. The Christianisation of the Slavs by the Byzantines was an important fact that marked not only that era but the subsequent centuries as well. The brothers Cyril and Methodius, who were born in Thessaloniki, carried out their missionary work among the Slavs. The Bulgarians were the first to accept Christianity in 864, followed by the Serbs in 867-874.The sacking of the city by the Saracens in 904 and the famine of 927 were landmark events of the 10th century that unquestionably influenced the thinking and art of the era. During the Crusades on the western borders of the empire, Thessaloniki once again played a leading role as a centre of military operations. Its Metropolitans, chief among them being Eustathius, were historical figures who dominated the intellectual life of the city and expressed positions on the major theological and political problems of the era. The sacking of the city by the Normans in 1185 and its occupation by the Latins for two decades after 1204 briefly suspended but did not stop its cultural growth. Artistic and literary production flourished during the Komnenian period and reached its peak during the Palaeologan era. The turn towards classical Greek education, with the study of ancient texts, highlighted aspects of humanism and led to the Palaeologan Renaissance of literature and art of that period. However, important theological and social controversies had taken place meanwhile, such as the Hesychast strife and the Zealot movement that threw the city into turmoil. The Byzantine metropolis contains a large number of extant devotional monuments. Each neighbourhood retains its Byzantine or post-Byzantine monument, elements of other times, when the city was the Symvasilevousa (co-reigning city) of a first powerful and then declining Byzantine Empire, or later the centre of an Ottoman- occupied Balkan peninsula. The city was fortunate enough to preserve mainly the monuments of its glorious religious past. Thessaloniki’s structures and organisation, its buildings, dwellings, markets, the everyday public and private life of its residents all bear witness to its secular side, a fact that is further confirmed by the evidence from the various excavations taking place in the city. Under Ottoman rule (1430-1912), almost all Christian churches, parish or Catholic monasteries were converted into mosques. The city acquired an Eastern character. Mosques were built throughout its neighbourhoods, new building complexes, religious schools, Bezesteni (an indoor market) and bathhouses became the hubs of the city’s new reality. The water supply system already in operation with underground and aboveground cisterns was enhanced and expanded. Fountains decorated with ornate sculptures were constructed along the maze-like streets, the Bairia of the Upper/Old City (Ano Poli), to serve the residents and quench the thirst of passers-by. The city walls were strengthened either through reconstruction or through new additions, such as the Vardaris fort. The Christian residents of the city, who primarily lived on the plains, built their churches according to the type that was most frequent in the post-Byzantine era: the three-aisled basilica with a low, gabled roof and a portico. After the resettlement of primarily Jewish refugees from Spain in 1500, Thessaloniki acquired a multi-cultural, multi-religious character, which it would retain until its liberation. In the 17th century, the city was organised into administrative districts, with the Jews living in the central and western section of the city, the Christians living in the east and in the centre and the Muslims living in the Upper City. The ‘Frangomachalas’ district would later be created near the port to accommodate the European population of the city. In the 19th century, an era of Reform for the Ottoman Empire, the city flourished. Light industry and commerce grew, while large commercial firms from Greece and abroad gave the city a cosmopolitan atmosphere. Contact with European ideas impacted citizens of all communities and religions. During the final quarter of the century, numerous schools and hospitals were built by all the communities and important buildings were constructed. The decision to demolish the sea wall and part of the south-eastern wall changed the image of the city. Its medieval character was lost, but it became able to ‘breathe in’ the sea and acquired a complete new seafront. Modern-day Ethnikis Amynis Street was constructed at the expense of the Sultan and the fountain was placed there, marking the point of origin of the new Avenue of the Countryside (or of the Towers) towards the east of the city, where the villas of the well-to-do were being erected. For the first time, the urban planning of a district was not based on religion, but on class. Muslims, Jews and Christians competed with each other in the construction of mansions. Numerous architectural styles mingled, giving birth to the eclecticism that characterises almost all buildings from that period. Industry began taking its first steps and Thessaloniki was a developing city of great promise. The 20th century held a number of changes for Thessaloniki. The decline of the Ottoman Empire and the national turmoil in the Balkans led in 1904 to the beginning of the Macedonian Struggle, in which Thessaloniki, with the Greek Consulate as a launching pad, played a major role. In 1908, the Young Turk movement exploded in the city, creating hope for religious equality that would soon be dashed. In 1912, Thessaloniki was liberated and annexed to the Greek state. Within a few decades, major historical events took place in the city. By the mid-20th century, the city had changed radically in image, size and population. During World War I, Thessaloniki served as the military operations centre of the Macedonian Front, housing the renowned Armée d’Orient (Army of the Orient), allies of the Entente. English and French military camps sprouted throughout the outskirts of the city. In 1916, Venizelos, having fallen out with the King, decided to form a temporary Triumvirate government in Thessaloniki, with the contribution of Danglis and Kountouriotis. A year later, in 1917, a devastating fire reduced the entire centre of the city to ashes. Thessaloniki was never again the same: 73,000 people were left homeless, entire fortunes, homes and stores were destroyed and the priceless heritage of the 19th century vanished. The political situation in the Balkans remained as volatile as ever, leading refugees from the surrounding regions and Greeks from the Orient to Thessaloniki.

Roman Monuments

> Map on pages 18-19

1 C5

Palace complex of the Roman Caesar Gale-rius Valerius Maximianus Navarinou Square Its construction began in the late 3rd–early 4th century AD. It is one of the most important mon-uments of Late Antiquity, the only one of its kind preserved in Greece. Monumental structures that served as an imperial residence have been excavated.

2 C5

Hippodrome Ippodromiou Square. There is no visitable section of the Roman Hippodrome, but we can picture the size of the ancient construc-tion by viewing the length and shape of modern-day Ippodromiou Street.

3 D5

Section of the ancient road at the Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art Within the In-ternational Fair. A section of a Roman-era cob-bled road is preserved in the basement of the Museum. The road originated at the Cassan-drean gate of the city, in the Syntrivani area, and headed southeast.

4 C5

Galerius’ Triumphal Arch Camara. (305 AD). Constructed to commemorate the victory of Galerius over the Persians. Its intricate relief scenes depict battles and victories in that war, expressing the omnipotence and unity of the Te-trarchy leaders.

5 C4

Monumental fountain from the Roman Era Junctionof Egnatias Street & Mitropolitou Gennadiou Street. Constructed beside a cen-tral road artery of Roman Thessaloniki (de-cumanus maximus).

6 C4

Roman Forum Junction of Olympou Street & Filippou Street. An administrative centre of the Roman era that, in its excavated form, began being organised in the mid-2nd century AD. The entire complex was organised around a rectan-gular cobbled square. On its three sides, there were two-storey arcades, with a double colon-nade of the Corinthian order, directly connect-ed on its perimeter to public and private spaces.

7 C4

Roman temple. Antigonidon Square. The tem-ple, made of architectural elements from an older archaic temple, was dedicated to the wor-ship of Augustus. Significant findings in this area include the torso of a male statue wearing a cuirass and an enormous statue of Zeus Ae-giochus (Aegis-bearing), dating back to the 2nd century AD, of exquisite artistry.

8 C4

Public administrative bulidings at Kyprion Ag-oniston Square Olympou Street, Venizelou Street and Aghiou Dimitriou Street. Olympou Street, Venizelou Street and Aghiou Dimitriou Street. Remnants of monumental, mostly public building were excavated at this site. The findings date back to the 3rd century BC and possibly con-stituted the administrative centre of the city dat-ing back to the Hellenistic and Roman era. The ruins of the buildings that are preserved and are visible to this day testify to the timelessness of this district of the city, which preserved its urban character throughout the Byzantine and Post-Byzantine era.

1 Β4

Walls. Remains of the Hellenistic and, subse-quently, Roman fortification of the city that were incorporated into its new fortifiedcircuit wall in the late 4th century. The surrounding wall, trape-zoidal in shape, was strengthened with alternat-ing triangular cantilevers and square towers, as well as a rampart. During the Byzantine era, re-pairs and additions took place, but the final pre-sent-day form of the walls is the result of Otto-man interventions.

2 Β4

Church of Aghioi Apostoloi Junction of Olym-pou & Paparrigopoulou Street. (1310-1314). The church, built by the Patriarch Nephon and his pupil, Abbot Pavlos, was the catholicon of a monastery dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Its inte-rior contains excellent mosaic decoration, char-acteristic of the final period of Palaeologan art.

3 C4

Church of Aghia Ekaterini Junction of Tsama-dou & Oedipoda Street, Ano Poli. (late 13th–ear-ly 14th century). Once served as catholicon to a Byzantine monastery. Its elegant dimensions and the structure of its facades, with recessed niches and arches, brick half-columns and cer-amoplastic decoration, make this monument an excellent example of Paleologan architecture.

4 C4

Church of Profitis Elias Junction of Olympia-dos & Amfilochias Street. Church of Profitis Eli-as Junction of Olympiados & Amfilochias Street. The Church, dedicated to Christ, was the ca-tholicon of the Byzantine Akapniou Monastery. It is unique in terms of architectural type and is known for its portrayal of the Infanticide, repre-sentative of the final period of Paleologan paint-ing.

5 C4 Church of Hosios David Latomos Monastery) Junction of Bouboulinas Street & D. Poliorki-tou Street–Ano Poli. The catholicon of the mon-astery of Christou Sotira tou Latomou (Christ the Saviour, the Quarryman) or ton Latomon (or Quarrymen), a name due to the existence of stone quarries, is renowned for its mosaic of the vision of Prophet Ezekiel in its alcove, one of the most important mosaics of the Early Chris-tian era.

6 D4

Vlatadon Monastery 64 Eptapyrgiou Street. (1351-1371).A Patriarchal and stauropegic mon-astery, the only Byzantine monastery still oper-ating in the city. It was founded the monk Dor-otheus Vlatis, a pupil of Gregory Palamas and subsequently Metropolitan Bishop of Thessa-loniki. The monastery was initially dedicated to Christ the Almighty and today honours the Transfiguration of the Saviour.

7 D4

Heptapyrgion NE end of the Acropolis. A com-plex of various construction phases from the early Christian–early Byzantine period up to the years of Ottoman rule. When converted into a prison in the 19th century, buildings and aux-iliary areas were added. The building currently houses the offices of the Ephorate of Byzantine Antiquities of Thessaloniki.

ed the Acropolis from Ano Poli (the Upper City). Following the wall towards the northeast, the Gate of Anna Paleologina (1355-1356) opens up, which once led to the area outside the walls. The intermediate wall ends towards the NE at Alys-seos Tower or Trigonion Tower. This is a circular tower constructed in the 15th century, incorpo-rating an older square tower that formed part of the Byzantine fortifications.

9 D4

Church of Aghios Nikolaos Orphanos 20 Hero-dotou Street. The catholicon of a Byzantine mon-astery. The ruins of its entrance have also been preserved. The exquisite mural decoration of the Church constitutes one of most complete paint-ing complexes preserved in Thessaloniki and is representative of Paleologan art.

10 D4

Church of Taxiarches 40 Theotokopoulou Street. A catholicon, most likely of a Byzantine monastery, dedicated to the Archangels and Tax-iarchs, Michael and Gabriel. A two-storey build-ing with an underground sepulchral crypt.Frag-ments of its mural décor have been preserved (2nd half of the 14th century).

11 C4

Byzantine baths unction of Theotokopoulou Street & Krispou Street (Kule Kafe). (13th cen-tury). The only public Byzantine baths current-ly preserved in Thessaloniki. A small building of rectangular design, it retains all the areas nec-essary for a bath: an antechamber, a tepid area, a warm area and a reservoir.

12 C4

Ladadika Area around Morrichovou Square.(mid-19th century). This area was the Byzan-tine port of Thessaloniki. During the period of Ottoman rule, it was embanked and, under the name Istira, was the city’s centre of wholesale trade. The Ladadika quarter was named from the wholesale trade of oil and was spared from the devastating fire of 1917, retaining the char-acter and memories of the late-19th century market.

A histor-ic and vital part of the city, it served as the cen-tral axis of the redesign of the city by Ernest Hébrard. The architecture of building facades is inspired by European or colonial models, as well as Neo-Byzantine tendencies in the indi-vidual decor of buildings. It is a rare example of implementation of scheduled architecture. The buildings were constructed from 1930 to 1960. Thanks to its orientation, the square enjoys an enchanting view of Mt Olympus. The square is home to numerous points of reference of the city, including Electra Palace Hotel and Olym-pion Cinema, headquarters of the Internation-al Film Festival.

This is the northern-most and highest section of the old hub of the city and has preserved el-ements of its historical past. Its first residents were Christian families in the 4th and 5th cen-tury and by the 16th century it had become a pri-marily Turkish quarter, except for the neigh-bourhoods around Byzantine monasteries and

churches. Due to its inaccessible terrain, it was always a residential area. After 1922 and the population exchange, the abandoned homes became primarily the residences of refugees from Asia Minor. The dominant characteristic of the residences of traditional Balkan archi-tecture was the şahniş, i.e. a bay window on the upper storey. The area has largely preserved its unique residential character to this day, with low houses, narrow, maze-like streets, steep inclines and openings with a view of Thermai-kos Gulf.

12 D4

Building at 47 Mousson Street Mousson Street and Akropoleos Street were the main roads of the Taxiarches neighbourhood that bordered

Vlatadon Monastery. The conversion of the Church of Taxiarches into a mosque drew the Muslim population to the region, while its adja-cency to Vlatadon Monastery, which remained a functioning Christian monastery, rendered the area one of the most densely populated and mixed neighbourhoods in the Upper City. The two-storey building with a courtyard and a wooden extension (type of bay window) of note-worthy design was donated in 1980 to the Min-istry of Culture. Today, it co-houses the Ephor-ate of Contemporary and Modern Monuments of Central Macedonia.

Apart from accom-modation, the orphanage also provided orphans with technical training (tailoring, carpentry, shoemaking, furniture-making, electrical work,
