Hi TL friends, this is a new posting from my recent visit in Chania. A game between light and shadows in the main entrance of the old building named " Megalo Neorio" (The Great Shipyard).
Some info: This is the last building on the west side of a complex of 17 shipyards. The construction of the building began in 1585, by the Commissioner General Alvise Grimani. The thickness of its walls, its isolation from the rest of the “Neoria”, as well as the public services which were periodically housed there, may account for the name “Great”. The second floor, constructed in 1875, housed the School of the Christian Community. Nowadays, the building is under restoration. When restoration will be completed, it will be used by the “Mediterranean Centre of Architecture”.
