EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless beauty and rich history of Thessaloniki, Greece, with a focus on the iconic Heptapyrgion (Citadel) standing proudly atop its hillside perch. Dating back to circa 1910, this image offers a glimpse into the old city's past, showcasing its ancient city walls and the imposing fortress that has guarded the city for centuries. The Heptapyrgion, also known as the Castle of the Seven Towers, is a historical landmark and a symbol of Thessaloniki's storied past. The fortress, which was built during the Byzantine era, has undergone numerous transformations throughout history, with each new ruler leaving their mark on its architecture. The old city walls, which can be seen snaking through the image, are another testament to Thessaloniki's rich history. These walls, which date back to the Roman and Byzantine periods, once protected the city from invaders and have stood the test of time, continuing to stand as a reminder of the city's past glory. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonica or Salonika, is Greece's second-largest city and a cultural melting pot. Its history is a fascinating tapestry of influences from various civilizations, including Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman, and Jewish, to name a few. This photograph offers a captivating glimpse into the city's past, inviting us to explore its history and discover the stories that lie within its ancient walls.
