Municipal Gallery of Athens

Primarily designed to become Athens’ first indoor commercial centre nowadays the gallery hosts nearly 3,000 paintings from leading 19th and 20th century Greek artists. The recently renovated neoclassical building has a long history of identities. It was abandoned until 1854 and later housed a silk processing plant, a shopping and residential complex, and the headquarters of the Hellenic Police. Of special interest are the drawings of German architect Ernst Ziller; the so-called father of neoclassical design in modern Greece.
