The biggest village of Mt. Pelion was at its commercial and cultural peak in the 17th and 18th centuries, It is the birth place of G. Kordatos, a distinguished Greek historian. There are texts dating back to the Byzantine era that mention Pelion by the name Zagora. The library of Zagora with thousands of rare books is of great interest. The school of Rigas Fereos or Hellenic museum as it was known, the oldest school on Pelion, Kallinikos Lapatis (Patriarch of Constantinople) and the bard of the Greeks Rigas Fereos were students of the school among others. The "mayor" of Zagora generally is responsible for most villages on Mt. Pelion. Currently the position is held by a member of the Chacos family
