ACROPOLIS MUSEUM

GREECE

Focused on the findings of the archaeological site of the Acropolis of Athens, the Acropolis Museum houses artifacts from the Greek Bronze Age to Roman and Byzantine Greece. Located over the ruins of a part of Roman and early Byzantine Athens, the archaeological museum was founded in 2003 and exhibits more that 4,000 objects. Located just a short walk from the Parthenon, it is perched above Athens and is framed by olive trees and propped up by concrete pillars in the central neighborhood of Makrigianni.
