ZAPPEION

ZAPPEION

The Zappeion Megaron, originally constructed for the first modern Olympic Games, is a significant cultural heritage of Greece and currently functions as a notable venue for conferences and events adjacent to the National Garden. Designed by the renowned Danish architect Theophil Freiherr von Hansen in 1878, the Zappeion Megaron is named after Evangelos Zappas, a Greek patriot and national benefactor of Northern Epirus, who envisioned the revival of the ancient Greek spirit and dedicated his life to the resurgence of the Olympic Games. Take a stroll through the Zappeion Gardens, which blend neoclassical architecture, urban aesthetics, and a jungle ambience in the heart of the city.
