Tower of Trigonion, Thessaloniki Overview
A walk along the city’s Acropolis will bring one closer to the famous Walls of Thessaloniki. The Tower of Trigonion, also called the Triangle Tower, is one of the most significant segments of the walls. The tower is situated several metres high above sea level and offers a balcony view of the city, the sea, and Mount Olympus on a clearer day.
Running for 4 kilometres around the city, the building and restructuring of these walls continued from the early Byzantine period to Turkish rule. The Turkish authorities built the tower as artillery to loom over Thessaloniki when Ottoman Emperor Sultan Murad II took charge of the city after a six-year siege.
