The name of the village, which belonged to the community of Asiar Bey, was originally Ompar. Most of its inhabitants were refugee families, mainly from Cappadocia, but also from Gallipoli, who settled in the area after the
population exchange of 1923. Refugees from
Anatolia stayed in state-built houses and engaged in agriculture. Diseases such as malaria were common due to the proximity to the Swamp of Giannitsa. Later, refugees from Enehil, who were also engaged in agriculture, arrived at a textile factory. The village has two churches, the central church of the Transfiguration of the Savior and the second church in the village cemetery, dedicated to the Prophet Elias. ==Climate==
