The New Acropolis Museum


The New Acropolis Museum, designed by New York based architect Bernard Tschumi in collaboration with Greek architect Michael Photiadis, opened its doors on June 21, 2009.

The President's Welcome

The new Acropolis Museum was designed with two objectives: the first to offer the best conditions for the exhibition of its exhibits and secondly to be a Museum that welcomes and befriends its visitors.

A walk through its galleries is a walk through history – between the masterpieces of the Archaic and Classical periods, but also in the ancient neighborhoods of Athens.

The Museum offers many opportunities for rest and recreation, as well as a visitor friendly environment for some of the most emblematic works of antiquity.
