Opened in 2009 at the foot of the Acropolis, the museum shows everything found on the sacred rock, with the Parthenon itself in view from its top floor.
The frieze and metopes, set out exactly as on the temple, with the temple outside the glass.
Five of the six marble maidens that held up the Erechtheion porch.
Glass floors over the excavated streets and houses of ancient Athens.
Six things to look for. Works sometimes move, so ask at the desk.
The procession of the Panathenaia, with casts where the originals are in London.
Top floorCleaned by laser, so you see the marble's original colour.
First floorA man carrying a calf on his shoulders, from about 570 BC.
Archaic galleryAn ancient neighbourhood under the building.
Ground floor and belowTap a button and we’ll give you a plan.
The excavation, the Caryatids and the Parthenon gallery.
Every gallery, with a break on the terrace café.
Visit the Acropolis first, early, then the museum when it gets hot.
From the top floor, compare the frieze with the temple across the road.
Count the horses in the frieze. Then find a Caryatid's braided hair from behind!
