Acron Athens

The University of Athens Museum is located in the historic Plaka neighborhood and today tells the story of the University of Athens. The building itself dates back to the Ottoman era, but it was extensively remodeled between 1831 and 1833 by the architects Stamatios Kleanthis and Eduard Schaubert. From 1837 to 1841, it served as the home of the newly founded University of Athens. Here you can explore the building's architectural development as well as the site's historical significance for the city's academic tradition.
