Thus, the 4th District includes archaeological sites, numerous buildings of all styles (neoclassicism, eclecticism, modern movement), squares (Plato's Academy, Agios Meletios, Athanasios Diakos, Sotiris Petroulas, Kolonou, etc.), groves, statues, fountains, etc.
The events {workshops, guided tour, photo exhibition (as part of a photo competition for the 4th MC), treasure hunt, educational programs in schools} aim to get to know the monuments, landmarks, unknown corners of the Community, to integrate them into our daily lives whether we are residents or visitors, with the ultimate goal of protecting its built and natural environment.
For three days, and not only, we tour, record, collect oral testimonies, photograph, paint, participate in a treasure hunt! The neighborhoods of the 4th MC are waiting for us!
