Servia-Velventos Municipality

Servia-Velventos was an administrative area in western Macedonia that brought together four separate towns under one governance structure. The territory contains rolling mountains, agricultural land, and includes a large reservoir that shapes the local landscape.

The administrative area came into existence in 2011 as part of Greece's nationwide restructuring of local governance. The entity ceased to exist in 2019 when it was divided back into its component municipalities.

The region shows a strong connection to its Byzantine past through churches and religious buildings scattered across the towns. These sacred structures shape how communities look and gather today, reflecting centuries of Christian traditions.

The area is best explored by car since towns are spread across the landscape. Accommodations and dining options are available throughout the different communities.

The area contains caves where early Christian monks once lived as hermits, leaving behind traces of their spiritual retreat. These hidden spaces remain visible today and offer insight into monastic life from centuries past.
