History

Шаблон:Further The ancient city of Calydon is located a bit north of modern Evinochori.[1]

The settlement, in Byzantine and Ottoman times, was known as Bochori (Μποχώρι), a name which is still commonly used today by the local population. It was also mentioned as Bochor or Bohor in several maps, including that from 1668 by Turkish traveller Evliya Çelebi. It was an important centre where wine and grapes were produced.[2]

Part of the municipality of Missolonghi since Greek independence, Evinochori became an independent community in 1912. In 1997, it joined the municipality of Missolonghi again under the Kapodistrias reform.[3]
