The historical memory is the guide of the future. It is the accumulated wisdom, the mark and the determination
of populations and nations. The Municipality of Patras through the 'Lens of History' creates a 'web window'
in the past of the city, in its historical routes, in its historical knowledge, in the facts and in
the personalities that during the city's course have defined crucial moments, estimating its cultural
identity and its contemporary role. This website is not addressed solely to the historical researcher. It is mainly addressed
to those that wish to experience a fascinating travel in the past of Patras, so that to get known with the aspects
of its history and to comprehend nowadays through yesterday. In this way they will love more our city.
