ONLINE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE The Ottoman Monuments in Greece Revisited A Tribute to Machiel Kiel, Friday 4 – Sunday 6 November 2022

Machiel Kiel is a pioneering and prominent figure in the study of Ottoman architecture in the Balkans. He has traveled and researched the area extensively since the late 1960s. The Ottoman monuments in Greece are studied by him starting with an article on Thessaloniki, which was published in the Balkan Studies journal in 1970.

Nowadays, more than half a century later, it is worthy to revisit the topic with the organization of an international conference in order to trace the current condition of fields such as the research and conservation of Ottoman architecture, urban formation, the history of the city, as well as both Ottoman and Christian art with a focus in Greece.
