Although it has been introduced as a Wine Bar, Vinsanto serves rather like a restaurant with few interesting choices when it comes to wine. Kitchen has a Mediterranean horizon but no fancy dishes here. While the space looks like a DIY low budget one you get a contemporary and fresh feeling. A bit noisy when packed with people, so prefer a modest night hour if you are not into socializing with the tables around.

Catholic Church - Immaculate Conception of Holy Mary
Greek Catholics number about 50,000 (0.5% of the population) and are a religious and not an ethnic minority. Greek Catholics and Orthodox share common forenames and family names, as well as traditions, especially on the islands. The contribution of Roman Catholics to Neohellenic literature over the last centuries is not negligible.
During the last decades, the presence of foreign Catholics, permanent residents of Greece, has continuously increased, and their number today perhaps exceeds the number of Greek Catholics. The majority are mainly women, spouses of Greeks, who have studied or worked abroad, or spouses of Greek seamen, etc. Aside from mixed marriages, tourism, as well as the free distribution of citizens of the European Union, are likewise causes of an increased presence of foreign Catholics.
Apart from the permanent residents, there are those who, with the passage of time, are completely assimilated by the local Catholic Church. Considerable, likewise, is the «temporary presence» of other Catholics, who come to Greece as economic or political refugees. (Their residence in Greece ranges from a few months to several years).

Volos Synagogue
The Jewish presence in Volos is documented since the reign of King Philippos ΙV (297-221 BCE). Massive emigration of Jews to Volos took place in the 14th century, while the local synagogue was built in 1870.
During the World War II, the city fell in the Italian zone of occupation. When the Germans took over, after Italy’s capitulation in 1943, most of the city’s Jews managed to escape and hide in nearby mountains, with the help of the Resistance and their fellow citizens. However, about 155
members of the community still lived in the city in March 1944, when they were rounded up by the Germans and sent to the extermination camps. Of a pre-war population of 872 people, only 645 managed to survive the war.
The community shrank even further as many of its members emigrated. Today it has about 100 people and the synagogue is open on Friday nights and important holidays.
