The students of 5th Grade visited the Museum of Byzantine Culture, where they had the opportunity to see the structure of an Early Christian city and residence.

With the triclinium -the reception area of ​wealthy houses in Thessaloniki- as our starting point, they developed a sense of the role of the city as a fortified residential complex which comprised public and private life, professional activities, economic aspects, commerce, workshops, residences and their equipment (ceramics and glassware), several in-house activities (weaving, cooking) as well as items of clothing and grooming.

All the pictures the students had seen in their textbooks came alive and took them on a journey into the everyday life of an old time period.
