Thessaloniki is a city with a strong multicultural character, shaped by its long history. Since its foundation, it has been a crossroads of peoples and cultures: Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans, Jews, Balkan communities, and Greek refugees from Asia Minor have all left their mark on the city’s identity. Its churches, mosques, synagogues, and monuments testify to this cultural diversity.

The multiculturalism of Thessaloniki is not only part of its past but also of its present, as it remains an open, vibrant, and welcoming city where traditions, flavors, and people from different parts of the world meet.

• The Jewish community of Thessaloniki was for centuries one of the most important in the world. From the 15th century, when thousands of Sephardic Jews settled in the city after their expulsion from Spain, Thessaloniki became known as the “Jerusalem of the Balkans.” The Jews played a decisive role in the city’s economy, trade, shipping, education, and culture. However, World War II and the Holocaust led to the destruction of the largest Jewish community in Greece. Today, monuments, synagogues, and the Jewish Museum of Thessaloniki keep alive the memory of the rich history and heritage of the Jewish presence in the city.
• Thessaloniki is filled with important Roman monuments, as it was a major and thriving city of the Roman Empire.
• Thessaloniki is famous for its Byzantine monuments and especially for its churches, which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
• Thessaloniki, due to its long Ottoman rule (1430–1912), preserves several Ottoman monuments, mainly mosques, baths, and public buildings.
