The Kaplaneios School today

The Kaplaneios School (Greek: Καπλάνειος Σχολή) was a Greek educational institution that operated in Ioannina from 1797 to 1820/1. The school evolved into the most significant intellectual center of the city through the work of Athanasios Psalidas,[1] a major representative of the modern Greek Enlightenment movement.[2]

Kaplaneios was rebuilt during 1922-1926 and since that time has housed a number of primary schools.[3]
