Syros - Ermoupoli Cultural Walking Tour

Explore the capital of the Cycladic islands and enjoy a refreshing splash in the deep blue of the Aegean Sea!
Discover the aristocratic town of Ermoupoli through an exciting walking tour that combines history, architecture, and the deep blue of the Aegean Sea.

The Ermoupoli walk begins at the island’s sports facilities, overlooking the old Telegraph Office. A key landmark along the way is the Lazaretta, the hospitable quarantine building, built in 1840 by the Bavarian architect Wilhelm von Weiler.

Heading northeast, our first stop is the Tarsanas of Ermoupoli, the oldest shipyard in the Cyclades, where traditional wooden shipbuilding techniques have remained alive since 1860.

Continuing toward the Neorion shipyard—the heart of the island’s shipbuilding history, operating since 1861 and still the largest industrial unit in the Aegean—we then pass by the small harbor and cross the Karnagio, a place filled with maritime stories.

Leaving the sea behind us, we ascend the steps toward the heart of Ermoupoli. Walking through the central market, we arrive at the historic Miaouli Square. Here, we will visit the public areas of the impressive Ermoupoli Town Hall, designed by Ernst Ziller, which is considered the most beautiful town hall in Greece.

Next, we admire the impressive interior of the Apollo Theater, built in 1864, designed by the Italian architect Pietro Sampo.

As we continue uphill, we pass by the neoclassical building of the Cyclades Labor Center and the imposing Church of Saint Nicholas, distinguished by its characteristic blue dome.

Our journey concludes in the aristocratic Vaporia district, where we can enjoy a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters by the pier, with a stunning view of the neoclassical mansions standing proudly against the waves.

A journey through history, culture, and the authentic beauty of Ermoupoli—an experience not to be missed!
