Aenaon Estate 1896

Aenaon Estate 1896 by K&K" is a building complex that was built in 1896, while the island of Santorini was under the Ottoman rule. It was built following the traditional architecture where the low areas had the canavas (the wine storage areas), while the upper ones had the living areas for the family that lived in the house. Building a house at this time was a very demanding and hard labor work, that needed local materials, especially stones, kissira (the light volcano stones) and working hands. Of prime importance in the architecture of the complex were the arches, the building basis of every construction for centuries.

Although it was traditional, the complex had modern facilities, such as full access to water, stored in the basement of the building, access from two roads and a piece of land within the complex, protected by walls, to cultivate the daily production, such as tomatoes, fava and grapes. These walls are preserved and exist today.

Pyrgos, where Estate 1896 is located, served as the capital of the island for many years and had a big Venetian castle that is still in existence today.

The "Aenaon Estate 1896 by K&K" was the home of a distinguished merchant family of the island, along with laborers and farmers. The family had a big wine production in the canava section, that is fully preserved today.

The complex was severely hit by the earthquake of 1956 and lost the upper part of the house. The lower part survived, to be refurbished a few years after.

Starting in 2010, full refurbishment of the "Aenaon Estate 1896 by K&K" complex was carried out.
