Old Primary School

Old Primary School in Sykia.

In the center of the village, the magnificent old school of Sykia, of Macedonian architecture with stone columns, built in 1870, dominates.
The builders were stone artisans from Epirus and used flattened mules and special scaffolding that they walked on, carrying the granite blocks high into the building.
The two columns at the entrance of the school were made by the master craftsman himself and head of the workshop, and an older craftsman.

A technical and architectural marvel that you won't find anywhere else in Halkidiki.
