The Athens War Museum (Greek: Πολεμικό Μουσείο), established on July 18, 1975, is the museum of the Greek Armed Forces
In 1964, the Hellenic State decided to found the War Museum, wishing to honor all those who fought for our country and its freedom.
The design of the museum was undertaken by a team of distinguished scientists, headed by Professor Thoukidides Valentis of the National Technical university of Athens (N.T.U.A).
On July 18, 1975, the President of the Hellenic Republic H.E. Constantine Tsatsos and the Minister of National Defense Evangelos Averof-Tositsas inaugurated the Museum.
Its various activities include the publication of books, the establishment and maintenance of monuments and memorials and the aid to services and agencies all over Greece.
The Museum’s exhibition areas are distributed over four levels (floors) and present images of Greek history from antiquity to the present.
It is a paved road that leads from the Lions Square to the 18 British Square on the port. During the Venetian period was a very important street because in this were the Loggia, the Basilica of St. Mark, the Ducal Palace and the Palace of the Admiral.
The Cycladic Art Museum was founded in 1986, in order to house the collection of exhibits of Cycladic and Ancient Greek art, of Nikolaos and Ekaterini Goulandri.
In Greek culture, food is so much more than sustenance – it’s about culture, comfort, family and life itself.
