AGORA MODIANO

Agora Modiano is a historic architectural landmark in Thessaloniki, originally designed by Eli Modiano in 1922 and inaugurated in 1930. Recognized as a significant building with Stoa, it was listed by the Greek Ministry of Culture in 1995 due to its cultural and architectural importance. After 30 years of inactivity, the Agora has been revitalized and reopened in 2022 following extensive restoration works commissioned to the architectural design studio SPARCH. The renovation transforms Agora Modiano into a central food market that also serves as a vibrant space for social gatherings and cultural events. Featuring 75 shops organized by type—ranging from vegetables and meat to organic and ethnic products—the market emphasizes high-quality offerings. Two balconies will host food outlets inspired by the market’s character, enhancing the visitor experience.

JEPA was involved in the detailed design of the electromechanical installations for this renovation, focusing on seamlessly integrating modern systems that boost operational efficiency while preserving the building’s historical significance. The newly renovated Agora Modiano stands as a contemporary testament to Thessaloniki’s rich culinary and cultural legacy, reviving its historical importance for modern use.
