Georgios S. Lambros
Owner of Ta Tsintzina, Sparta
- Born
- 1924, Zoupena, Greece
During the Civil War George was one of a dozen young men of Zoupena rounded up by Pavlakos’s paramilitaries for belonging to EPON, the youth wing of the resistance. Someone spoke up for him, and he and three others were pulled out of the group and badly beaten. The rest were executed.
He went on to open Ta Tsintzina, a popular working man’s walk-down restaurant on the main street of Sparta, and ran it until he retired. His sons Vasilis (opens in a new tab) and Lymberis (opens in a new tab) took it over.
George was one of the three people whose memories of the Laskaris family’s deaths are recorded in the family history.
