Museum of Byzantine Culture - Thessaloniki, Greece (photo video)
From a sign at the Museum of Byzantine Culture in Thessaloniki, Greece:
“The Byzantine Empire (330 – 1453)
The Byzantine Empire was the continuation of the Eastern Roman Empire. The defining moment from which it may be said to have acquired its own distinctive identity was when the capital was moved from the West to the Hellenistic East, when Constantine the Great founded Constantinople in 330. The determining factors in the development of Byzantium were ancient Greek civilization, the Roman heritage, and Christianity.
In the early, transitional period – the Early Byzantine or Early Christian period (4th – 7th cent.) – the Empire spread out over three continents and was organized according to the Roman administrative system. The official language was Latin. The new element was Christianity, which became the official religion of the state and profoundly influenced the spiritual life of Byzantium.
In the Middle Byzantine period (8th – 12th cent.), because Slav tribes had spread into its northern and the Arabs into its eastern territories, the Empire was essentially confined to the southern Balkans and Asia Minor, where Hellenistic influence remained strong. This and the fact that Greek became the official language helped to consolidate the Empire’s Greek identity, while the new administrative and military organization provided more effective defences against its foes. In this period, under the Macedonian and Komnenian dynasties, Byzantium reached its spiritual, intellectual, and artistic zenith, and exerted a powerful cultural and political influence on the then known world, especially on the Balkan peoples.
During the late Byzantine period, the Palaiologan era (13th cent. – 1453), the now clearly Orthodox Greek Empire gradually dwindled as its economy became increasingly dependent on the Italian cities and it endured the assaults of the Latins, the Slavs, and the Ottomans. The latter overthrew the Empire and captured Constantinople in 1453.”

Thessaloniki Museum
The story of the Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki is similar to the city's recent history. The Ephorate of Antiquities by the General Directorate of Macedonia was the first service to be founded, on November 1912, only a fortnight after the city was incorporated into the Greek State.
Until 1925, all antiquities found in Macedonia were gathered at the Residency (Dioikitirion- the modern-day building of the Ministry of Macedonia-Thrace) as well as the Ottoman Idadie School, which housed the Faculty of Philosophy of the Aristotle University. During World War I, the French Army (Armee Francaise d’ Orient) was gathering antiquities initially at Karabournaki and later on at Rotonda, while the British Army would gather the antiquities they uncovered at the White Tower.
In 1925, the Yeni Cami, the new mosque, the centre of worship for the Donmeh population of the Ottoman-occupied Thessaloniki, was given to the Archaeological Service. The Yeni Cami would become the city's first Museum, as the inscription still in place on its facade indicates. In 1940 many antiquities, mainly sculptures, were buried in trenches in order to be protected from war raids. They were unearthed in 1951 and displayed for the first time in the main hall of the Archaeological Museum (Yeni Cami) in 1953.
In 1950 a large plot was designated for the erection of a new Museum, in the heart of the city, on Y.M.C.A. Square, next to the grounds of the International Fair. The project was assigned to Patroklos Karantinos, an notable Greek modernist architect.
The new Museum was inaugurated in 1962 in a grand ceremony, as part of the celebrations for the completion of 50 years since Thessaloniki's liberation, exhibiting the impressive finds from the Derveni tombs, which had been found in the same year. An exhibition of sculptures from the Archaic to the Roman era followed, designed by Giorgos Despinis, professor of Archaeology at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
The impressive finds of the Royal Tombs at Vergina revealed by professor Manolis Andronikos, which were transferred to the Museum for storage and conservation as soon as they were found, necessitated a new display pattern and required the construction of a building extension. In 1982 a new exhibition was designed to display the finds from the cemetery of Sindos. The ephor of antiquities, Aikaterini Despini was responsible for both the excavation and the exhibition. In 1985, with the completion of 2300 years since the foundation of Thessaloniki by Cassander in 315 BC, the then director of the Museum, Julia Vokotopoulou organised the first major exhibition dedicated to the city's history and archaeology.
In 1996 the first large-scale exhibition on Prehistoric Macedonia took place at the Museum, below the Vergina Hall, at the new building extension (by Vogiatzis) completed in 1980. This exhibition was organised by the then director Dimitrios Grammenos and the archaeologist Maria Pappa. In 1998, when the Vergina finds were transferred back to their place of discovery to be displayed in a new museum that simulated the large burial mound of the Royal Tombs, a new exhibition was organised at the Museum of Thessaloniki, entitled The Gold of Macedon by Dimitrios Grammenos and the archaeologists Betina Tsigarida and Despina Ignatiadou, in order to fill the gap of the remarkable royal burial assemblages.
In 2002, through a Presidential Decree (164/2002), the Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki became a separate Special Regional Service of the Ministry of Culture. At the dawn of the 21st century, modern museological needs led to an extensive renovation of the building. The Museum became accessible to the public again in 2004 with new permanent exhibitions. On September, 2006, the renovated Archaeological Museum was officially reopened with five new thematic exhibitions, under D.Grammenos and a large team of specialists. The new exhibitions, completely anthropocentric, bypassing the thread of time, has acquired a strong didactic character.
After a long period of work for the renovation of the exhibition, storage, preservation and management spaces, the Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki opened for the public on September 2006. In the time before the opening, apart from the expansion of the building, the most important and vital part of our efforts was completed: the exhibitions of the museum were redesigned in a way that responds to the needs of the modern visitor.

What is Urbex?
Urban exploration (often shortened as urbex or UE, and sometimes known as 'roof-and-tunnel hacking') is the exploration of man-made structures, usually abandoned ruins or not usually seen components of the man-made environment. Photography and historical interest/documentation are heavily featured in the hobby and, although it may sometimes involve trespassing onto private property, this is not always the case. Urban exploration is also commonly referred to as infiltration, although some people consider infiltration to be more closely associated with the exploration of active or inhabited sites. It may also be referred to as draining (when exploring drains), urban spelunking, urban rock climbing, urban caving, or building hacking.

ΜΟΥΣΕΙΟ ΥΔΡΕΥΣΗΣ ΘΕΣΣΑΛΟΝΙΚΗΣ - WATER MUSEUM of THESSALONIKI
Το Μουσείο Ύδρευσης Θεσσαλονίκης στεγάζεται στο άλλοτε κεντρικό αντλιοστάσιο της πόλης της Θεσσαλονίκης. Ανήκει στην Εταιρεία Ύδρευσης και Αποχέτευσης Θεσσαλονίκης Α.Ε. (ΕΥΑΘ Α.Ε.) και προσφέρει μια μοναδική βιωματική εμπειρία πάνω στην ιστορία της υδροδότησης της πόλης.
Το αντλιοστάσιο χτίστηκε στα τέλη του 19ου αιώνα (1890 - 1894, στα 1.500 μ. από τα δυτικά τείχη του ιστορικού κέντρου) από Βέλγους τεχνικούς για λογαριασμό της Οθωμανικής Εταιρείας Υδάτων Θεσσαλονίκης. Το 1939 ιδρύθηκε ο Οργανισμός Υδρεύσεως Θεσσαλονίκης που ανέλαβε τη λειτουργία του μέχρι το 1978, οπότε και το αντικατέστησε το αντλιοστάσιο Δενδροποτάμου. Το 1987 ανακηρύχτηκε διατηρητέο μνημείο από το Υπουργείο Πολιτισμού κι αποφασίστηκε να λειτουργεί στο εξής ως μουσείο. Επί 90 σχεδόν χρόνια το κεντρικό αντλιοστάσιο αποτέλεσε την καρδιά της υδροδότησης της πόλης απασχολώντας πλήθος εργαζομένων και ικανοποιώντας τις αυξανόμενες πληθυσμιακές ανάγκες, με την υιοθέτηση των πλέον προηγμένων τεχνολογιών.
Το ίδιο το κεντρικό κτίριο από μέταλλο και τούβλο είναι από μόνο του έκθεμα από άποψη βιομηχανικής αρχιτεκτονικής κληρονομιάς. Πρόκειται για ένα πραγματικά «ζωντανό» μουσείο, με μέρος μάλιστα του τεχνικού εξοπλισμού του να τίθεται ακόμη σε λειτουργία. Η μόνιμη έκθεση παρουσιάζει μηχανές, εργαλεία, εργαστηριακό εξοπλισμό, παλιά υδρόμετρα, όπως και μια εκτενή συλλογή από ιστορικούς χάρτες και φωτογραφίες. Το μουσείο φιλοξενεί κατά καιρούς ειδικές εκθέσεις κι εκδηλώσεις.
Water Museum of Thessaloniki
The Water Museum of Thessaloniki is housed in what was once the central pumping station of the city of Thessaloniki. It belongs to the Thessaloniki Water Supply and Sewerage Co. S.A. (EYATH S.A.) and offers a unique empirical view of the city’s water supply history.
The pumping station was built in the late 19th century (1890-94) at about 1.500 m. away from the western walls of the historical city centre, by Belgian technicians, on behalf of the Ottoman Water Company of Thessaloniki. For almost 90 years the central pumping station was the heart of the city’s water supply, employed a large number of people and served the citizens’ needs by adapting to the latest technologies. In 1984 it was declared to be a preserved historical monument by the Ministry of Culture and was decided to work thereafter as a water museum.
The central building, constructed by metal and bricks and accompanied by other buildings such as store houses and administration offices, is the main exhibit itself for its architecture and industrial equipment. It is considered to be a live museum, since part of its technical equipment can be set in motion. The permanent exhibition features machines, equipment, tools, laboratory equipment, measuring devices and other items, as well as an extensive collection of historical maps and photographs. The museum also regularly holds special exhibitions and various events.
