T. KOLOKOTRONIS AND P. KEFALAS

The many-month long siege of Tripolitsa, formerly also known as Dropolitsa, was extremely significant for Kolokotronis and the Revolution. The fall of Tripolitsa, which was the most secure Ottoman region in Southern Greece, was crucial for the liberation of the Peloponnese. The mural in Klonatzidika pays homage to, as well as Kolokotronis, Panagiotis Kefalas, a fighter who went down in history for his fortifications and the siege of the city.
