Smart Construction S.A., a leading construction company based in Chania, Crete, successfully completed the finishing and restoration works for the former Town Hall of Therisso, located in Vamvakopoulo, Chania. Awarded in February 2016 and completed in February 2018, this public heritage project with a contract value of €292,311.20 showcases Smart Con’s expertise in the careful renovation and completion of historically significant civic buildings.
Therisso is a village of deep historical importance in Crete, closely associated with the revolutionary legacy of Eleftherios Venizelos, and the former Town Hall stands as a key landmark within this unique cultural landscape. The completion works encompassed structural finishing, restoration of architectural details, and comprehensive improvements to both interior and exterior spaces — all carried out with a strong emphasis on preserving the building’s historical character while bringing it up to modern standards of safety, accessibility, and functionality. The result is a revitalized civic building that honors its heritage while being fully equipped to serve the community for years to come.
Delivering a two-year project of this complexity requires not only technical expertise but also a deep respect for the architectural and cultural context in which the works take place — qualities that define Smart Construction’s approach to heritage construction and public infrastructure development across the Chania region.
