Why it matters

The building keeps visible the importance of education in Dimitsana’s modern public life.

Built between 1898–1910 with Andreas Syngros’ donation, this two-class school followed a nationwide design by architect Dim. Kallias. It operated as a girls’ school until 1930, then housed Dimitsana’s courthouse. With a rectangular plan, central corridor, tiled roof, and ornate stone façade, it remains a symbol of the town’s educational heritage.
