Guilford 1824/Ionian Academy

“Your most obedient servant and friend Earl Guilford”

Ionian Parliament/Corfu-Old Town

2024 coincides with the 200th anniversary of the Ionian Academy, the first university-level Greek school of the modern era. It was founded in Corfu by the English philhellene Guilford and graced the United States of the Ionian Islands for 40 years, from 1824 to 1864, that is, until the Union of the Ionian Islands with Greece. It reopened as the Ionian University from 1984.
