Breaking the heart of Thessaloniki through time?
Save city’s byzantine center, the city’s memory and identity!
Recent rescue excavations contacting by the Greek
Archaeological Service at the historical center of Thessaloniki,
Northern Greece, due to the construction of modern city’s Metro Station
(Venizelou str.), revealed one of the most significant material evidence
of city’s urban life at 6th – 9th century: the monumental Gate
(Tetraphylon) placed at the crossroad of the central avenue (decumanus)
with the road leading to the harbor. The central road (ca. 76 m in
length) was paved with marble plaques, and framed by public buildings.
These extraordinary finds signify the city’s early urban development and
constitute a unique monumental evidence of social, commercial,
administrative and every day life in early byzantine Thessaloniki.
The decision, made up by the State, of removing the whole monumental
complex and placing it in a far distant ex-army camp undermines the
essence of the un-movable archaeological monument according to the Greek
and International Law. Thus, this rare piece of world heritage will
loose its original place and context and far more its exceptional
archaeological/historical character.
Consider what will be the Eifel Tower or the Big Ben removed from their original place?
The citizens of Thessaloniki, as well the citizens all over the World
have the right to stay attached with this monument and stay connected
with their heritage, memory and identity through time.
Please sing up and vote in order to save this irreplaceable monument.
There are technical solutions to preserve it and place it straight to
heart of Thessaloniki’s modern life.
