    Historically, between 1890 and 1905, the mines had been in operation, owned by the Company of Public and Municipal Works. In 1905 the mines were forced to stop operating due to the production of sulphur at low prices in the U.S.A. In 1910-1918 they operated sporadically, whereas in the 1930s they were in full operation and the facilities of at that time can be seen even today. The sulphur mines, the Theioryheia, were in operation until 1960, whereas their business activity ceased to be carried on permanently in 1978.
