History
Antiquity The first indications of human existence in the prefecture of Ioannina are dated back to the Paleolithic period (38.000 years ago). This is testified by the stone tools that were found in the cavern of Kastritsa. // The Paleolithic is a prehistoric era distinguished by the development of stone tools. ...
510—879 The city was founded in the 6th century by the Byzantine emperor Justinian I. It was named Ioannina, probably, meaning "(Town) Of John" in Greek, because it was placed under the protection of St. John, in the early Christian period, supposedly in 510 AD. It was first mentioned in 527 AD by the historian Prokopios who wrote about the founding of the city, the new Evroia. This article is about the Roman emperor. ...

879—1430 However, it was not until 879 AD that the name Ioannina was used for the first time in the Acts of Constantinople. More specifically, the Acts of the 879 Synod, reference one Zacharias, Bishop of Ioannina. During Samuil the town was part of the Bulgarian Empire. The name Ioannina was also mentioned as an Episcopal Seat, under the self-governing (Autocephalous) Bulgarian Archbishopric of Ohrid in 1020 in an imperial document by Basil II.

The city was conquered in 1082 by the Normans under the leadership of Bohemond of Taranto, who repaired the existing city walls in order to repel the offensive of emperor Alexios I Komnenos. In the 13th century, the creation of the Despotate of Epirus favoured Ioannina, which became its second most important city, after its capital, Arta. The founder of the Despotate, Michael I Komnenos Doukas settled Byzantine families of refugees, such as the Filanthropinoi, Stratigopouloi etc, who fled Constantinople after the fall of the city to the crusaders of the Fourth Crusade and later to the Bulgarians under Ivan Asen II[3]. These refugee families, together with the local nobility, took over the government of Ioannina in 1318 and broke away from Arta. In the same year, Ioannina became tributary to the Byzantine emperor Andronikos II Palaiologos and a little later to the Serbs, who had, by then, expanded their state over much of Byzantine and Bulgarian territory. The Byzantine emperor granted several privileges (administrative, economic, ecclesiastic) to the inhabitants of Ioannina. These privileges were honoured by the Serbs, too, and as a result Ioannina rose to a great economic and cultural level during the next centuries. The city flourished in time, becoming an important financial and cultural centre. During the Byzantine times it was referred to as the "Metropolis of knowledge". In 1367 the Serb Thomas II Preljubović became the new overlord of Ioannina and after him the city surrendered to the Isau Buandelmonti (1385-1411) and Carlo I Tocco (1411-1430).

Pasha, pascha or bashaw (Turkish: paÅŸa) was a high rank in the Ottoman Empire political system, typically granted to governors and generals. ...
In 1611 the city suffered a serious setback as a result of a peasant revolt led by Dionysius the Philosopher (aka Skylosophos), Bishop of Larisa. The revolt ended in the abolishment of all privileges granted to the Christian inhabitants, who were driven away from the castle area and had to settle around it. From then onwards, Turks and Jews were to be established in the castle area. Dionysius the Philosopher (Greek: ΔιονÏσιος ο Φιλόσοφος) was a Greek monk who led two farmer revolts against the Ottoman Turks. ...

Despite that blow, the city managed to recover. Its inhabitants continued their commercial and handicraft activities which allowed them to trade with important European commercial centres, such as Venice and Livorno, where merchants from Ioannina established commercial and banking houses. At the same time they maintained close economic and intellectual relations with their birthplace and founded charity and education establishments. These merchants were to be major national benefactors. For other uses, see Venice (disambiguation). ...

The great economic prosperity of the city was followed by remarkable cultural activity. During the 17th and 18th centuries, many important schools (Epiphanios, Goumas, Valeneios, Maroutsea, Zosimea etc.) were founded, taking over the long tradition of the Byzantine era.
In the 17th century Ioannina was a thriving city with respect to population and commercial activity as both French and Turkish travellers Jacques Spon and Evlia Celebi, respectively, attest. Evlia Celebi visited the city in 1670 and mentioned the presence of 1,900 shops and workshops and 4,000 houses.

1789—1821 In 1789 the city became the centre of the territory ruled by Ali Pasha, an area that included the entire northwestern Greece, Thessaly and a part of Evia and Peloponnese. The Albanian Lord Ali Pasha was one of the most influential personalities of the 18th century. Born in Tepelene, he maintained diplomatic relations with the most important European leaders and his court became a point of attraction for many of those restless minds who were to evolve into major figures of the Greek Revolution (Georgios Karaiskakis, Odysseas Androutsos, Markos Botsaris and others). The period of his rule coincides with the greatest ever economic and intellectual era of the city. As a couplet has it "The city was first in arms, money and letters". The efforts of Ali Pasha to break away from the Sublime Porte were very alarming. In 1821 (the year the Greek War of Independence began) he was declared guilty of treason and Ioannina were besieged by Turkish troops. Two years later Ali Pasha was assassinated in the chapel on the island of the lake, where he took refuge while waiting to be pardoned by the Sultan.

1821—1943 In 1869, a great part of Ioannina was destroyed by fire. Nonetheless, the marketplace was soon reconstructed according to the plans of the German architect Holz and thanks to the personal interest of Ahmet Rashim Pasha, the local governor. The communities of people from Ioannina living abroad were active in financing the construction of most of the city's churches (the Cathedral, St. Nicholas of the Agora, St. Marina, Archimandrio etc.), schools and other elegant buildings of charitable establishments.

Tourism  Main entrance to the castle viewed from within. One of the most notable attractions of Ioannina is the islet on Lake Pamvotis. Passengers are ferried back and forth from the mainland to the island (about a 15-minute ride each way) on small motorboats which run on varying schedules, according to the season. (About once every half hour, or more, in the spring and summer, much less frequently in the winter.) Tourists can visit the Moni Panteleimonos monastery (Ali Pasha's aforementioned refuge) which has been converted into a museum containing information and paintings, as well as re-creations of Ali-Pasha's lounging and living quarters. The museum is not the only attraction on the island: there are many gift-shops, tavernas, churches and bakeries on the island's winding streets. Some of the people of Ioannina even choose to make the tiny island their yearlong home, with simple rowboats moored outside their homes, or in small marinas, in the event they need to get to Ioannina proper when the motorboats are not running. Lake in the region of Epirus (Northern Greece). ...
Botanically, the region of Ioannina is dominated by robust, fragrant pine trees, many of which grow within the city itself, especially around the old castle, or fortress walls. The bizarre layout of the castle's streets, which either go around in circles or lead to dead ends, were allegedly designed to confuse pirates of old who breached the castle walls, so that they would get lost within the fortress, and be captured before escaping with their bounty.
 Panoramic view of Ioannina.  Typical crafts shop in Ioannina - Ioannina is famous throughout Greece for its silverwork, with many shops selling silver jewelry and decor (serving trays, recreations of shields and swords, trinkets, etc.). The ornate style of the jewelry and artwork reflects more Turkish, rather than Greek, sensibilities, due to the lengthy Turkish occupation of the area.
- Ioannina is also one of the few places in Greece where one can purchase a hookah. Greeks rarely use hookahs; they are mainly sold to tourists as novelty items and vary in size from very small to quite large (some are 4-5 ft. tall.) The larger ones in particular can be quite attractive and are often purchased by Greeks and tourists alike to be used as decor. For purchasers who would like to experiment smoking with a hookah, most merchants carry a variety of flavored tobaccos.
- Within the castle in the centre of Ioannina city, the mosque of Aslan Pasha houses the Municipal History Museum, which includes works of folk art, as well as weapons and swords from the period of the Ottoman occupation of the area.
- The neighbouring region of Zagori comprises many traditional villages, such as Papingo, Skamneli and Monodendri. The region is noted for its scenery and traditional food.

- The island in Lake Pamvotis is referred to as "Nisaki" ('Νησάκι, Greek for "little island", literally) by everyone, including its inhabitants. It is linked to the city by small boats, as a form of public transport.
