Peponia ( Greek: Πεπονιά) is a village and a community of the Voio municipality. [2] In the late Ottoman period, it was inhabited by Vallahades; in the 1900 statistics of Vasil Kanchov, where the town appears under its Bulgarian name "Laya", it was inhabited by some 300 "Greek Muslims". [3] Before the 2011 local government reform it was part of the municipality of Neapoli, of which it was a municipal district. [2] The 2021 census recorded 48 inhabitants in the village. [1]
