History
Ministerial Decision G25871 of 9 July 1963 created the EO65 from the EO39, which existed by royal decree from 1955 until 1963, and followed the same route as the current EO65.[2][3] In 1998, the Hellenic Statistical Authority extended the EO65 designation from Kilkis to Petritsi via Mouries, taking over some of the Kilkis regional unit's Provincial Roads.[4]
