📍 From Ferry, Greece
Towering prominently along Thessaloniki’s waterfront, the White Tower has stood as a steadfast symbol of the city’s layered history since the 15th century. Originally part of the city’s fortifications, it once served as a prison during Ottoman rule. Today, visitors can climb its winding staircase to the top for panoramic views of the bay and bustling promenade below. Inside, the museum offers multilingual exhibits highlighting Thessaloniki’s vibrant past, from the Byzantine era to modern times. Surrounded by charming cafés and restaurants, it’s an ideal starting point for exploring nearby landmarks such as Aristotelous Square.
