Anavryta (Greek: Αναβρυτά, before 1927: Βραστόν – Vraston)[2] is a village and a community of the Grevena municipality. Before the 2011 local government reform it was a part of the municipality of Theodoros Ziakas, of which it was a municipal district.[3] The 2021 census recorded 18 residents in the village.[1] The community of Anavryta covers an area of 11.104 km2.[4]

Vraston was populated by Greek speaking Muslim Vallahades.[5][6] The 1920 Greek census recorded 212 people in the village, and 212 inhabitants (40 families) were Muslim in 1923.[7] Following the Greek–Turkish population exchange, Greek refugee families in Vraston were from Asia Minor (2) and Pontus (25) in 1926.[7] The 1928 Greek census recorded 125 village inhabitants.[7] In 1928, the refugee families numbered 29 (106 people).[7]
