Drapetsona 1hr walk in Piraeus, Greece

Drapetsona (Greek: Δραπετσώνα) is a suburb and a former municipality in the southwestern part of the Piraeus regional unit in the Athens Urban Area.

In 1805 the first church, Saint Dionysios was built. In the 1830s Drapetsona was constituted of people who moved from Greek islands and settled near Saint Dionysios church in the area called Vourla. In 1834 a part of the region was given to Piraeus in order to become a cemetery under the term of churches’ reconstruction. Also a great number of brothels was established in 1873 to the west of Saint Dionysios. After the 1922 Asia Minor Catastrophe there was a notable population increase.
