The last vestiges of the old cours des miracles were eliminated with the redevelopment of the Filles-Dieu site during the French Revolution and Haussmann's renovation of Paris in the 19th century." Contemporary culture Cour des miracles (Greek: Η αυλή των θαυμάτων) is one of the most important contemporary Greek theater plays written by Iakovos Kambanellis and performed for first time in Athens during 1957-1958. The play projects the life stories and relationships of a group of neighbors in the working-class neighborhood of Vyronas in Athens that are facing displacement from their humble housing units surrounding a courtyard due to a new building project that the landlord initiated.
