Anargirios & Korgialenios School of Spetses

Anargirios & Korgialenios School of Spetses

The Anargirios & Korgialenios School is situated just outside the city of Spetses, approximately 2 km from Dapia. Founded by national benefactors Sotirios Anargyros and Marino Korgialeni, it consists of five huge and several supplementing buildings that are located in an area of one thousand acres. The buildings' architecture has been directly influenced by the corresponding English Schools and impresses even today.

In the wider area of the school, there is the football stadium of Spetses, as well as an open-air, ancient type theater with a capacity of 1000 spectators that hosts various events.

The school's opening took place in 1927 by Prime Minister Eleftherios Venizelos and its first director was the Englishman Eric Sloman. The school was a public school model and a boarding school with many distinguished alumni, including Greek Prime Minister Georgios Rallis. The operation of the school stopped in 1983 and now houses, among others, a department of the University of Piraeus and the High school of Spetses.
