An ambitious project
The first architectural competition for the new Acropolis Museum was staged in 1976, but it took three more contests before the Swiss-French architect Bernard Tschumi was officially declared the winner in late 2001. He created a museum whose interior is airy and light-filled. Large glass surfaces on the facade allow natural light to enter the building and “embrace” the sculptures. Tschumi envisaged the repatriation of the Parthenon Marbles from the British Museum and created the areas where they can be displayed. His design also took into consideration the preservation of the ancient residential quarter discovered below the museum. The glass floor allows visitors to explore classical Athens beneath their feet.

It took 2 minutes to buy tickets to the museum while we sat at the cafe, drank beer and looked at the 200-meter queue for the ticket box. There was no queue for Entrance with skip-the-line tickets. Super!
Excellent app and program. The speaker was clear and concise. Information was just the right amount and appears to be accurate. I will definitely use Cleo Muse again.
You need to download the App and the Tour before you visit to use it. Everyone needs to have their phone, have a full battery and remember to bring headphones.
