Acropolis

It was the first official event of the Parthenon Project in Greece, a campaign that aims to reunite the Parthenon Marbles currently at the British Museum in London with their counterparts in Athens.

The Acropolis Museum is set to participate in the 2024 European Days of Conservation-Restoration with a series of special workshop tours on October 17, 18 and 20.

Titled "From the Ground to the Museum," the event offers visitors a behind-the-scenes look at how ancient artifacts uncovered beneath and around the museum are preserved and displayed.

The last thing that would have excited public opinion, be it in a spontaneous or contrived manner, in early July this past summer, was the announcement from the Council of Europe's Committee for the Prevention of Torture (CPT) on the actions of various institutional tentacles of the Greek state.

The Ministry of Culture is fully implementing a plan to unify the two Acropolises of Ioannina and to highlight and sustainably utilise this iconic monumental complex as a unified archaeological and cultural site.

Officers of the Municipality of Athens and the Hellenic Police removed the tents of two homeless people who lived in the archaeological site of Philopappou Hill next to the Acropolis for three years.

An ancient civilization, unknown to many, is revealed in the new temporary exhibition titled “Treasures of Ancient Basilicata – The Invisible Heritage,” which will take place in the temporary exhibition hall of the Acropolis Museum from October 17, 2024, to January 31, 2025.

A total of seven exclusive guided tours of the ancient Acropolis in Athens have been conducted since the Ministry of Culture introduced the service in late June, according to data released Thursday.

Visitors to the Acropolis Museum will have the opportunity to enjoy the August full moon with a view of the Parthenon and the sounds of music.

The Acropolis Museum (Dionysiou Areopagitou 15) is hosting an exhibition by American photographer Robert McCabe. The exhibition, "Haire xene: In the Land of Dreams" features 100 photographs of postwar Greece that highlight the beauty and cultural heritage of the country during a time of limited means. Admission free. For more information, visit theacropolismuseum.gr.

Moxy Athens City hotel (65 Stadiou) will host a live performance of the London-based post-rock band Electric Litany and the Athenian ambient pop phenom Johnny Labelle.
