Chrysavgi Watermill and Stone Bridge

In Chrysavgi, the Great Bridge of 1854, alongside its adjacent traditional watermill, narrates a compelling story. The bridge, 9 metres high with a 14-metre span, was funded by the bandit Nikolaos Zambros from Polyneri, Grevena, as an act of gratitude to the villagers who offered him refuge during his pursuit by Ottoman troops. Next to it stands the restored traditional watermill of 1860, which had been destroyed in 1944 by German occupation forces due to the patriotic slogans that were carved on its walls. Today, both structures stand as living monuments to a time when water powered daily life and production. Surrounded by flowing waters and plane trees, the site has become a peaceful place for walking and remembrance, well worth a visit.
