“The protection of the cultural environment is the obligation of the State and the right of all individuals.” Greek Constitution, article 24
From the early 80s, I remember – one example were the apartment blocks on Navarinou Square – how the architectural traces have been destroyed in Thessaloniki, especially those of the early 20th century. And they said that the damage done was too great to be restored. But then, as I observed the city more closely, I realized that the traces still existed, despite all the damage. Such a trace is the Exarhopoulos Mansion. A short documentary about the need to protect our hsitorical memory.
