Welcome to the Acropolis Museum (15 Dionysiou Areopagitou St.) Designed by Bernard Tschumi, the Acropolis Museum’s architectural plan revolves around three concepts: light, movement and a tectonic and programmatic element. The architecture is simple and precise with the mathematical and conceptual clarity of ancient Greek buildings. It opened its doors to the public on June 20, 2009. Nearly 4,000 objects are exhibited over an area of 14,000 square metres.
