O Neoclassicism
The Dimitris Paliouras writes that neoclassicism came to Greece from the Bavarian Otto, who chose him first as the rate appropriate to the reconstruction of Athens, capital of the newly established Greek state and then introduced and extended throughout the Greek territory.
AThessaly came somewhat later, around the middle of 19ουcentury, specifically in the region of Volos, with the start of the reconstruction of the new city which, as characteristically Nicholas Magnes in his book”Periegesis Thessaly and Thessaly Magnesia,London 1860″, “in between Castle and Dimitriados shores,arises from 1840 year of Christians in the surrounding villages, new city they called amen youthful Dimitriada, which has been given on Tash 80 house large and along with the new rate of Built“.
