A bit of history
Molyvos Manor is
actually half of the large home built in 1926 by Ioannes Krallis
and his wife Maritsa Kalligeris. After the early death of
Ioannes, Maritsa returned to her family in the village of
Sykamnia. In the years that followed, it was occupied by the
Germans during WW II, the communist guerrillas in 1944 for
6 months, earthquake victims in 1945 for 1½ years,
the Art School of Athens during the 60s and then the Greek
army took it over for two years 1974 /76. During the mid-eighties
was it divided between Ioannes two sons Stratis and
Nikos, and renovated. In 1994 the house was named Molyvos
Manor and has had many guests, lot of whom have returned year
after year, preferring this unique spot for their vacations.
Since then there has been further refurbishment to bring it
more up to date but still in keeping with its original style.
