The historic site of the Marasleio Didaskaleio—later the Marasleio Pedagogical Academy and the Model Experimental Primary Schools—is closely linked to the history of education in Greece. Its operation dates back to the early years of the previous century (1905). The building was erected on land donated by the Monastery of Petraki, based on designs by the architect D. Kallias. Funding for the construction and equipment of the building was provided by Grigorios Maraslis. Distinguished figures who shaped the country’s educational landscape through their work and pioneering ideas served at the school, from Alexandros Delmouzos and Dimitris Glinos in the 1920s to Ilias Vingopoulos in the 1970s.
