Overview

The birthplace of the Western Civilization, this city is the stuff of legends. Named after the Greek goddess of Wisdom, Athena, and built around the Acropolis, it was once the center of the ancient world, leaving its indelible mark in literature, philosophy, politics and art. In the footsteps of Aristotle, Plato and Socrates, we journey through the layers of history of the capital to discover roman vestiges, learn about the 19th century decline and later rebirth under King Otto, leading to the city of today.

You will learn about:
First settlements in the 11th millennia BC
Mycenaean civilization
Iron Age center of trade and prosperity
Persian Wars
The Golden Age of Democracy
Macedon and the end of independence
Roman rule
Byzantine Period
Conquest of the Ottoman Empire
Greek War of Independence and the Greek Kingdom
Birth of the modern city plan by King Otto of Bavaria
First modern Olympic Games
First World War
Greek-Turkish war
Second World War
Post-war boom
