The new Acropolis Museum stands in the historic area of Makrygianni just to the south-east of the Parthenon. Construction was finally completed in 2007 - more than 30 years after it was originally conceived. Architects from around the world competed to design this modern structure with over 150,000 square feet (14,000 square meters) of exhibit space. That’s ten times more space than was in the old museum on the hill of the Acropolis. Plan on spending a few hours or an entire afternoon in this fascinating museum, especially during the hot summer months. It’s easy to lose track of time exploring the art, culture and customs of the people who inhabited the Acropolis from pre-historic times through to the beginning of the middle ages.  Enter the Acropolis Museum from the Dionysios Areopagitou pedestrian street, which links the building to the Acropolis and other major archeological sites. You may want to start at the top in the Parthenon Gallery, which offers a stunning 360-degree panoramic view of the Acropolis surrounded by modern downtown Athens.  Another option is to start on first floor, where you can view an archeological excavation. Gaze down on ruins from the 4th through 7th centuries A.D. which in places are visible through the floor you’re standing on. There are hundreds of artifacts, artworks and stories to explore from throughout Greek history in the permanent collections. Check the schedule for the temporary exhibitions. Come early to beat the crowds, and eat a traditional Greek breakfast at the café on the second floor. On Friday nights, the restaurant is open until midnight, offering special gourmet dishes and enchanting views of the Acropolis lit up on the hillside. The Acropolis Museum is located in the city center, on the Acropolis, and is accessible by public transportation. It’s open daily except Mondays, and some major holidays. There is a small admission fee. ## Plan a trip to see Acropolis Museum Price found within the past 48 hours.

destination 5 - Excellent 271 4 - Good 81 3 - Okay 17 2 - Disappointing 2 1 - Terrible 0 ### 5/5 - Excellent Verified traveller be prepared for a hike, all steps of different heights, and no hand rails at all. Go as early as possible, by 10am it gets very crowded. Only one washroom at lower part of the climb, just before you go through the ticket gate. Well worth the effort, wear flat shoes, hiking boots if possible. ENJOY ### 5/5 - Excellent Verified traveller You can now visit the ancient Athenian city excavation beneath the museum, which is included in the cost of your ticket. Enjoy a coffee, a meal and stunning views of the Acropolis of Athens from the outdoor restaurant terrace. ### 5/5 - Excellent Beth The new Acropolis Museum is OUTSTANDING. Archeological Museum in Athens also outstanding and provides a broad background re all of the numerous civilizations and archeological sites across Greece. ### 5/5 - Excellent Verified traveller Awesome anytime! ### 5/5 - Excellent Verified traveller Recommend watching short film on history of Acropolis on 2nd floor first ### 4/5 - Good John Insightful...Lots of history to absorb ### Popular places to visit ![Museum of the Center for the Acropolis Studies](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/9/1a7ce83b49facd65f8c7b35006cf8800.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Museum of the Center for the Acropolis Studies 5/5(9 reviews) You can browse the exhibits at Museum of the Center for the Acropolis Studies, a museum with a storied past, during your travels to Athens.
