The only thing that sounds remotely like this in Greek is pergola, which is in Greek as in Italian a timber or metal construction like a canopy, to provide shade.
The sites that google drives you to with this word are Finnish, so why don't you ask at the Finnish section?

“Pergola” is found in Greece, Italy, I think also in Spain.
A pergola is a garden feature forming a shaded walk or passageway of pillars that support cross beams and a sturdy open lattice, upon which woody vines are trained. It may also be part of a building, as protection for an open terrace. The origin of the word is the Late Latin pergula, referring to a projecting eave. The term was borrowed for English from Italian, mentioned in an Italian context in 1645 and used in an English context in 1675.
