Around 1875 – 1880 the establishment and operation of Cemeteries was granted to the Charity Society of Thessaloniki’s men, which after strenuous efforts, created the Cemeteries of Evaggelistria, erecting at the same time the church and the necessary auxiliary buildings for their function. Since the end of the 19th century in ‘the Cemeteries of Evaggelistria’ are resting eminent Thessalonians, whose name has been connected with the city history.
