Things to Know Before You Go
- The Acropolis Museum is a must for any visitor to Athens.
- Museum facilities include two shops, a cafe, and a restaurant, open late on Fridays.
- Completed in 2007, the Acropolis Museum replaced an older museum of the same name.
- The museum appeals to families, with activity backpacks for kids.

How to Get There
The Acropolis Museum is a 10-minute walk from the Acropolis in downtown Athens, and many travelers combine a visit to the Acropolis with a tour of the museum. Driving in historic Athens is not recommended. Ride the metro to Acropolis (Line 2), catch a bus or a trolley to Makriyianni, take the tram to Leoforos Vouliagmenis, cycle, or go with a tour.
When to Get There
The museum is open daily, with extended hours in summer and cheaper tickets in winter. Visit midweek for a less crowded experience.
The Parthenon Frieze
The Acropolis Museum’s most famous—and most controversial—display is the Parthenon Frieze, a 525-foot (160-meter) masterpiece by the fifth-century Athenian sculptor Phidias that once crowned the Parthenon temple. The white patches are plaster casts of its missing pieces, the Parthenon Marbles or Elgin Marbles, removed by Lord Elgin in 1801 and now held by London’s British Museum. Watch the film to learn more about the religious procession the frieze depicts.
