Because it's a big story i will give the Google Translator the text and post it. :
It will start with the tragic night in 1897 but much earlier on that we all understand the importance of our city during the Turkish occupation since it is inextricably tied to the fate that would later.
"We read a confidential report-thesis of a French diplomat and a 15-year ambassador of France in Istanbul Sieur De Breves published in 1628 in Paris titled" Compact>: It is known that most of the supplies destined for Istanbul from the area called Volos ... if occupied this region Istanbul will perish from hunger ....
Doing some steps forward in time we reach the period of Greek epanastasis.Opos known Turkish garrison was installed in the castle of Volos where the Turkish evrisketo machalas.O Greek population has fled the villages of Pelion, where they know an unprecedented economic boom and consistency and cultural "in the same physical entities that have their hands on the resale local economy disseminating new ideas of the European enlightenment and Fileleftherismou.Idees not slow to alter their traditional villages in culture cells which in some years they will accept and disseminate the idea of revolution and reconstituting the nation
So we arrive in 1821 and the revolution in Thessaly and Magnesia, where for these reasons starts here! The Pelion rebels led by protamartolo Pelion Kyriakos Basdeki began to besiege the castle of Volos on May 8 that the day after the declaration of Pelion revolution by Archimandrite Anthimos Gazis Milies .... almost simultaneously arrived from Larissa power suppression revolution 20,000 troops and 6,000 cavalry led by Mahmut Pasha Dramalis who broke the besiegers. The Turkish fortress of Volos then periodically poliorkoutan by Greek forces which have brought losses and Tourkous.Kai in June of 1878 the Turks withdraw their troops from Thessaly and the city liberated. After the release of Volos in June 1878 followed a period of prosperity for the city. Volos is the northernmost port in Greece and knows a sudden and unprecedented anthisi.Sti city open consulates all major European countries and active major foreign financial epicheiriseis.I then known Austrian Loyd selects the Volos Centre diametakomismou only brings around 200 Austrian people.
In 1897, however, breaks new Greek-Turkish polemos.i Greece lost territories and the Turkish troops arrive threateningly outside Volos wanting to retaliate in some way "protoepanastates" of thesallomagnisias!
Most Volos leaving poli.oi foreigners residing in Volos (European consuls, businessmen, Catholic, Western, etc.) are raising their balconies flags of their countries to prevent the plunder of the Tourkoi.To so do many remaining Volos who raise their homes flags of foreign countries, notably Austria to escape the dangers of military katochis.Etsi an entire town devastated by the bombing shows the strange and contradictory spectacle is full of ruins, while many colorful simaies.I image captured the story of his father De Chirico
This day became etched in the mind of 10 years since Giorgio de Chirico, who later in several works painted simaies.I destruction of Volos that evening was also the reason his family along with many others left the homeland forever their city.
