The Captain Kottas Museum or Museum of the Macedonian Struggle of Captain Kottas (Greek, Modern (1453-);: Μουσείο Μακεδονικού Αγώνα Καπετάν Κώττα) is located in the village of Kottas, Macedonia, Greece,[1] the birthplace of the Greek Slavic-speaking Captain Kottas (Greek: Κωνσταντίνος Χρήστου), one of the earliest protagonists of the Greek Struggle for Macedonia.[2]
__TOC__
On the National Road that connects Florina with Korytsa in Albania and at a distance of 45 km from the first is the village of Kottas, home of the local Macedonian of the same name.[3]
On the ground floor there is a display of three complete outfits belonging to the Kottas family, as well as a few domestic utensils and tools. Two firearms dating from the time of the Macedonian Struggle are exhibited on the first floor, and photographs of Macedonian fighters from the Florina area.[4] [5]
Konstantinos Christou (Kottas) in collaboration with the metropolitan of Kastoria Germanos Karavangelis fought with his body against the Bulgarian komitadjis before 1904, with the result that there was Greek activity in the area of Korestia until Pavlos Melas and the other Greek chiefs came from the south mainland of Greece and Crete.
The Ministry of Macedonia and Thrace made provision for the Kottas family home to be converted into a museum, and it was opened by the then President of Greece late in 1995. It operates with the help of the "Friends of the Museum of the Macedonian Struggle society" and co-operating women's societies.
