HISTORIC PRESERVATION at Veria Old Town (Barbouta & Jewish Quarter).
Veria's old quarters preserve narrow cobbled lanes and traditional houses, including the former Jewish quarter of Barbouta with its old synagogue building and Ottoman era residences nearby. The neighborhoods are protected as designated historic areas and are cared for by the municipality of Veria alongside Greek heritage authorities. They remain inhabited, freely accessible open air districts rather than a fenced monument.
About Veria Old Town (Barbouta & Jewish Quarter)
Veria has been inhabited since antiquity as the Macedonian city of Beroea, notable as a place where the apostle Paul is recorded as having preached in the first century CE. Under Ottoman rule the town developed distinct quarters, including Barbouta and a historic Jewish quarter, home to artisans and merchants. These neighborhoods reflect Veria's multiethnic trading past.
