Zappeion Megaron is located at the city centre, Metro station (Syntagma) plus 10 min. walking.

 

Zappion Megaron is one of the most important venues for conferences, exhibitions, and special events in Europe. Located in the historic centre of Athens, walking distance from the Acropolis and the marble Panathinaic Stadium of the 1896 Olympic Games, the Zappeion Exhibition Hall is surrounded by over 200,000 square meters of gardens with meandering paths, fountains and over 70 neoclassical sculptures.
In 1888 the Zappeion Exhibition Hall was one of the first buildings in Europe specifically designed for exhibitions and conferences. An extensive interior and exterior renovation, completed in 2006, restored the building to its original splendor while, at the same time, state of the art technology was introduced to the listed building.
The Zappeion Exhibition Hall has witnessed  the history of Athens for the past 120 years. It has been a key site for some of the nation's most significant moments, and has always been integrally linked to the Olympic Movement. Even though its uses were varied, it has become a landmark in the Greek capital, thus fulfilling the donor's initial wishes.
It has also served as the headquarters for the Greek EU Presidency and the Press Centre for the Ministry of the Press during the 2004 Olympic Games.
