The
town of Zagora lies in the very heart of Pelion forest. From the
Middle Ages onwards there are plenty of records documenting the rise
and prosperity of Zagora.
Due to the certain administrative and
economical privileges given by the Ottoman Empire to the Pelion area,
Zagora steadily grew into a very important commercial and
manufacturing centre. During the 17th and 18th
century, the famous Zagorian silk and woolen clothes were sent to
Constantinople, smirna and other important trading centres
throughout Europe by the Zagorian sailing ships.
At the same time a serious movement for
the promotion and protection of the Greek cultural heritage started
with the establishment of the School of Zagora (1712), and its
Library a few decades later (1762), |
