Citation
Description There are many works written about Constantine a Methodius, the brothers from Byzantine Thessalonica. The vast majority is dedicated to their activities in Constantinople, Rome or elsewhere and their missionary and educational work in Great Moravia. Their place of birth - Thessalonica - is neglected; this paper provides a short description of this second largest Byzantine city as it was during their lives. The author argues, that the history of this city is a key to their later successes.
