The 10 Year Anniversary

Undoubtedly one of the most celebrated newer museums
on the planet, the Acropolis Museum is celebrating a
decade since it first opened its doors to showcase the
iconic legacy of the Acropolis and Greek antiquities in an
interactive, innovative space that has amassed awards in
itself. Over 14.5 million people have visited from Greece
and abroad to marvel at the extensive collection of artifacts
from Ancient Greece as well as the fascinating, exclusive
views of the Acropolis and Athens the building offers. Part
of the festivities for the 10th anniversary is a temporary
exhibition titled “Chisel and Memory. The contribution of
marble craftsmanship to the restoration of the Acropolis
monuments,” open until October 31. Entrance is free.
