VASILEOS GEORGIOU SQUARE
The most central and historical square in Patras, a landmark in the
town where the “Apollon” theatre stands majestically. Its name
has changed multiple times in the past, until 1863, when King
George I came to the throne and it was established as Vasileos
Georgiou square. However, today it is known as Georgiou Square.
It has always been a place of cultural and political events, a
meeting point and the centre of the famous carnival. It got its
current modern form after a recent regeneration and today it is
stone-paved, with trees and the fountain dating from 1875.
