The Byzantine and Christian Museum - The BEST COLLECTION of PODCASTS and YOUTUBE VIDEOS for

===

Located near the upmarket area of Kolonaki, the main museum building resembles a Tuscan villa set in a beautiful enclosed courtyard away from the busy main road of Vasilissis Sofias. It’s a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and you can easily picture yourself sitting in the nearby coffee shop with a good book. The building was built in 1948 in the Tuscan Renaissance style and is an architectural rarity in Athens.

The permanent exhibition is placed over several levels covering a mind-boggling 18 centuries of art and culture. Although sometimes a little repetitive, you will be reminded how much power and influence the Byzantine Empire wielded and the legacy it left behind. The earliest expressions of Christianity are fascinating to see, like the rare 13th Century mosaic icon of the Virgin Mary from Constantinople, one of only 40 known to exist.

Why Athens Tip: The Museum of Cycladic Art, The Benaki Museum and The War Museum are all within walking distance, as is the neighbouring archaeological site of Aristotle’s Lyceum, which is also run by the Byzantine museum.

Byzantine and Christian Museum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Byzantine and Christian Museum (Greek: Βυζαντινό και Χριστιανικό Μουσείο) is situated at Vassilissis Sofias Avenue in Athens, Greece. It was founded in 1914 and houses more than 25,000 exhibits with rare collections of pictures, scriptures, frescoes, pottery, fabrics, manuscripts and copies of artifacts from the 3rd century AD to the late medieval era. It is one of the most important museums in the world in Byzantine Art. In June 2004, in time for its 90th anniversary and the 2004 Athens Olympics, the museum reopened to the public after an extensive renovation and the addition of another wing.
