Veria

Among the cities of Macedonia and Thrace, Veria stands out for its Byzantine church heritage and its position beneath the Vermio Mountains. The Tripotamos River runs through the city, while the surrounding plain leads east toward the Aliakmonas River. Known in antiquity as Beroea, Veria was an important Macedonian city and appears in the Acts of the Apostles as a place visited by Saint Paul. Its older quarters retain Byzantine and post-Byzantine churches, and the Barbouta district recalls the long presence of a Jewish community.
