Traditional Quarter of Makariotissa

Traditional Quarter of Makariotissa

This is one of the old christian quarters of Veria, in which a significant number of Byzantine and post-byzantine churches are preserved, which, despite their small size, preserve exquisite wall paintings in their interior.

. The majority of them were located in the center of each neighborhood, in private yards, totally isolated from the outside environment. A number of buildings of architectural interest, dating back to the 19th and early 20th century are also well preserved here. Nowadays, many of them house beautiful cafes, bars and restaurants.
