Naoussa lies along the Arapitsa River, where the eastern foothills of the Vermio Mountains descend toward the plains of central Macedonia. The town’s setting combines wooded slopes, flowing water and cultivated land, with the river running through its urban fabric. Naoussa is one of Greece’s leading wine towns: nearby vineyards produce Xinomavro under the protected Naoussa PDO designation, a red wine known for its structure and ageing potential. Its identity also carries the memory of the Greek War of Independence; in 1822, the town was destroyed following an uprising against Ottoman rule.
