The MUNICIPAL GARDEN of DRAMA
Until the second decade of the 20th century the garden was fenced and inside it there were garden cafés, where various local and touring orchestras used to play. In the area behind the Xenia hotel, during the latest Bulgarian occupation, two basins (swimming pools) were built for the residents to row small boats or swim in. On the North side of the garden, till the early 1960s, there were also two covered markets. The Ethniki Amyna main street (on the East side of the garden) used to be lined with rustic taverns and openair cinemas; before the war it was shaded by very tall trees and paved with cobble-stones. On the East side of the Municipal Garden, stands the statue of Liberty, work of sculptor L. Lameras and of architect I. N. Chalepas, dedicated to the liberation of the town on 1st July 1913. The pedestal features engraved the first lines of the Greek national anthem.
