NATIONAL ARCHEOLOGICAL MUSEUM

NATIONAL ARCHEOLOGICAL MUSEUM

Established in 1829, the National Archaeological Museum was the first museum in Greece following the country’s liberation from Ottoman rule. It is the largest museum in Greece and holds significant global importance. Originally designed to house discoveries from 19th-century excavations, primarily in Attica but also across Greece, the museum evolved into a central repository for archaeological artifacts from the entire Greek region. The extensive collections, totaling over 11,000 exhibits, provide visitors with a panorama of ancient Greek civilization from early prehistory to late antiquity.
