The sanatorium was founded by Dr. George Karamanis in 1907 and operated until 1966. It is considered both the first Greek mountain sanatorium and one of the best organized in Europe. In the 1990s, the sanatorium was transferred to a new owner who did not reopen. Today the building complex is in ruins. A handwritten and electronic catalogue (both in Greek) are available at the Archive. Patient records, financial records, folder with correspondence between the Sanatorium and the Jewish Community of Thessaloniki (1946-1947). Jewish Holocaust survivors were hosted in the Sanatorium for treatment with the financial assistance from the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee. Copies are available and are issued by employees. Ratified copies of archival material are also available via application.
