In the “footsteps” of Gottingen with the Caratheodory Museum as “pioneer”.

The idea for the creation of a beacon of Culture which would be centered on the new home of the Caratheodory Museum, the Tsanakleio Hall, was presented on Monday, 18 July, by the scientific advisor of the museum, Mr. Nikos Ligeros, to the public of Komotini and the members of the Caratheodory’s Friends Association. Mr. Ligeros expressed the view that the exploitation of the historical data of Komotini must be done in a strategic way, with strategic tourism, spearheaded by culture.

The event was attended by members of the Caratheodory’s Friends Association, the Mayor of Komotini, Mr. Georgios Petridis, members of the Komotini City Council and a large number of people.
