During the 18th century, the Estate’s Historical Mansion takes its present form, reconstructed on the old Byzantine foundations, to be used at first as accommodation for prefects and other functionary of the Ottoman Empire. Following the 1821 Greek revolution, the Estate passes to the hands of Ritso's family, the family of our great and patriot poet.

There are many references of our Mansion, references witch remind the poet’s grandfather; Dimitrios Ritsos as a wealthy landowner of the area, witch cultivated in the Estate olives and vines. He lived there with the whole family during the summer months. Later, the father of the poet, Eleftherios, takes the lands, continuing its cultivation and using, also, the Mansion as a country house. According again to numerous references, the poet and his brothers spent carefree summers of childhood and adolescent age, playing in the Estate.
