Efxeinoupoli (Greek: Ευξεινούπολη) is a small town in the Municipality of Almyros, prefecture of Magnesia, periphery of Thessaly, Greece. Euxinoupoli counts 2555 residents.
[edit] History
Efxeinoupoli was created in 1906. The first residents that came in the area were Greeks, refugees from Eastern Rumelia (de-facto a part of Bulgaria). Firstly they were established in Almyros. The building of the town started on the 29th of September 1907. After the Greco-Turkish war (1919-1922) Greek refugees from Asia Minor came to the town of Efxeinoupoli.
The name of the town had been chosen to denote the origin of all those refugees from regions across the Euxeinos Pontos (Black Sea).
