Summary

The aim of this dissertation is to formulate a documented spatial and urban planning proposal for the unification of the archaeological remains of Themistokleio walls, with the urban fabric of the capital, through a network of sidewalks. In the first part of the work, reference will be made to the historical and urban elements of Athens, as well as to the renovations that have taken place in the city. In the second part, reference is made to the historical elements of the wall, but also to all the places where remains have been identified, dividing them into two main categories, visitable and non-visitable. In the third chapter, the locations of the findings are evaluated, in order to investigate whether the remains at these points have undergone the appropriate operations. The purpose of the work, that is, the complete hiking proposal, is developed in the fourth chapter, while the most important conclusions of the work are analyzed at the end. Due to the large area occupied by the wall, parts of which are scattered in Athens, the focus of the work will be the area of Thissio, an area in which the proper display of its archaeological remains has not been done. Then, it is proposed to highlight the Themistocles wall, through the sidewalks, in those places where there are archaeological remains of insitu, while the reasons for which these walks are deemed necessary will be analyzed. The aim of the pedestrian walks in the area of Thissio, is on the one hand the promotion of the Themistokleio wall, on the other hand these interventions contribute to the promotion of the historical heritage, making the area a pole of attraction
