Municipal Unit of Drapetsona

The Municipal Unit of Drapetsona has served as an industrial waterfront on the Saronic Gulf in Attica since the early 20th century. It lies beside the port of Piraeus, where shipping, ship repair and heavy industry long shaped the shoreline and daily life. The former Greek Fertilizers works, established in 1909, is a key reminder of that working heritage; parts of its grounds now form the Lipasmata cultural and recreation area. Drapetsona remains closely tied to the maritime economy of greater Piraeus while facing the busy waters of the gulf. Trace Drapetsona’s place in the Piraeus area by browsing nearby webcams.
