Villa Petridi, Protected building in Besh chinar, Greece
Villa Petridi is a substantial residential building featuring eclectic architectural design located near the courthouse in Thessaloniki. The structure displays decorative lion sculptures on its exterior walls and combines multiple architectural influences in its overall composition.
The building was constructed around 1900 and initially belonged to a Bulgarian family. After 1912, when the Greek army entered the city, the family departed and left the residence behind.
The municipality of Thessaloniki opens Villa Petridi to visitors during November Open House events, allowing exploration of its architectural elements.
The villa is located at 10 Anagenniseos Street in Thessaloniki and can be easily spotted from the street. Visitor access and viewing information can be obtained by contacting the local administration.
Lion sculptures mounted on the villa walls represent Bulgarian heritage, marking the original owners' national identity through architectural decoration.
