THE MILL OF THE ELVES |
|
In the north-west of the city, on the way of Trikala-Arta, after the railway line, the park of the Mill Matsopoylos is found. It was manufactured in 1884 and in 1977 it was bequeathed to the Municipality of Trikala. In 1984 its operation stopped.
The complex of the Mill today constitutes a historical-industrial monument, is found in a greenery space. Aesthetically it draws the visitor’s attention not only by its large height but also by its exterior investment by stone and its internal installations that are wooden.
The Mill today, which has been maintained, functions as cultural centre. The Municipal Cinema (summery-wintry), the Municipal Theatre and the Cafeteria function on a permanent base. A congress room also functions and a hall for cultural events.
