A new replica of the famous Antikythera Mechanism, the world’s first ‘analog computer’ as it is described, has been built and put on display at the National Observatory of Athens on Nymphs’ Hill in Thissio.

Antikythera Mechanism is perhaps the most advanced example of ancient technology to be recovered to date.

The new educational model is the most recent and updated replica of the complex mechanism, using nearly all the latest information that archaeologists have discovered about the mechanism via the new scanning techniques.

Specially trained staff at the observatory will tour visitors from 10:00-14:00 on Monday to Friday until the end of October. There would be also special touring dates.
