SUMMARY:First Cemetery of Athens: An Open Air Sculpture Gallery II
DESCRIPTION:This activity is only available in Greek.\n\nArchaeologist and guide Michalis Giohalas invites visitors to explore the sculpture garden of the First Cemetery of Athens\, in collaboration with the This is Athens City Festival.\n\nBeyond the “Sleeping Female Figure”\n\nThe tomb of Sofia Afentaki—better known as The Sleeping Female Figure by Yannoulis Chalepas—is undoubtedly the cemetery’s most famous sculpture. But it’s far from the only one of note. This alternative walk veers off the main path to reveal a lesser-known yet equally remarkable side of Athens’ open-air gallery.\n\nWinding through the cemetery’s quieter\, uphill lanes\, we’ll encounter mausoleums of celebrated figures—places where mortals meet immortals\, and where the lofty desire for remembrance coexists with overwhelming silence.

SUMMARY:A Three-Star Architectural Crown: The Neoclassical Trilogy of Athens
DESCRIPTION:The University\, the Academy\, and the National Library form the absolute crown jewels of our city’s architecture\, the ultimate Trilogy that defined the look of modern Athens.\n\nBut there’s way more to these marble marvels than just a good photo op.

Think of it as a deep dive into Athens’ DNA\, explaining how statues\, towering columns\, and tiny decorative details all played a part in a young nation’s vision.\n\nIt’s history\, but with a pulse. Whether you’re a fresh arrival to the city or a long-term expat who walks past these buildings every day\, this tour will make you see the centre of Athens in a completely new light.\n\nMeeting Point: The Propylaea of the University of Athens (Right outside “Panepistimio” Metro station\, University exit). \n\nThis activity is only available in Greek.

SUMMARY:Historical Walk: "Sabotage and Street Protest in Occupied Athens"
DESCRIPTION:Renowned historian Menelaos Charalampidis leads an immersive journey through the heart of the occupied city\, tracing the footsteps of one of the most dynamic resistance movements in Europe.\nThis isn’t just a history lesson; it’s a vivid reclamation of the city’s soul.

SUMMARY:The Journey of the Serenade
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve ever wondered what Athens sounded like before the hum of motorbikes and the thump of basslines\, follow this group of traditional kantadoroi (troubadours). They are taking to the cobbled streets below the Acropolis to revive the lost art of the Athenian serenade.\n\nLove songs and melodies once flooded the city’s historic neighborhoods\, serving as the ultimate way to confess a secret or share a moment of collective emotion. As you stroll\, following the voices through the shadow of the Acropolis\, the city’s past starts to feel incredibly present—a beautiful reminder that some things\, like a perfect melody under the stars\, never go out of style.

SUMMARY:Historical Walk: "Women in the Resistance"
DESCRIPTION:History is often written in the singular\, but the soul of Athens was defended by many. As part of the Athens City Festival 2026\, historian Menelaos Charalampidis invites us on a specialized commemorative walk through the city streets\, illuminating a pivotal yet often overlooked chapter: the defiant role of women during the Occupation.\n\nThrough personal testimonies\, rare documents\, and vivid storytelling\, the footsteps of iconic figures like Lela Karagianni\, Elektra Apostolou\, and Ioulia Bimba come to life. From the protesters who stood unflinching before enemy tanks to the female partisans of the eastern neighbourhoods\, the city reveals a different\, fiercely dynamic face.\n\nThis isn’t just a journey through the struggle for liberation; it’s the story of women claiming a new place in post-war society. Join us for an experience that bridges past and present\, inviting you to “re-read” the history of Athens through the voices of the trailblazers who were kept on the margins for far too long.\n\nThis activity is only available in Greek.

SUMMARY:Guided Tour at the City of Athens Museum
DESCRIPTION:The City of Athens Museum (Vouros-Eutaxias Foundation) will welcome us for a rather special look at the capital’s modern history. The tour spans two iconic buildings that tell the story of a city finding its feet.\nWe start at the legendary “Old Palace”\, the first residence of King Otto and Queen Amalia. It’s a space deeply intertwined with the very first steps Athens took as a modern European capital. Here\, you’ll see the city through the objects and grand rooms that helped define its new\, royal identity.\n\nThe journey then moves into the second building of the complex\, the former home of the Dekozis-Vouros family. This is where things get personal. It offers a much more intimate glimpse into Athenian “high society” life\, revealing the aesthetics\, the daily habits\, and domestic charm of the 19th and early 20th centuries.\n\nThrough these collections and the stunning architecture itself\, you’ll witness the trajectory of a city that was rapidly expanding and shaping its modern self. It’s a tour that beautifully bridges the gap between Athens’ grand political history and its private\, everyday heart.\n\n\nThis activity is only available in Greek.

SUMMARY:Historical Stroll with Dr. Iordanis Papadopoulos: Makriyianni
DESCRIPTION:Step into an urban stroll through the Makriyianni district\, where ancient beauty meets the grit of modern Athenian life. Led by Dr. Iordanis Papadopoulos\, an expert in Political Philosophy\, this tour invites you to decode our urban identity\, viewing the iconic shadow of the Acropolis not just as a backdrop\, but as a living witness to a city that refuses to forget.\n\nThe journey begins in the silent galleries of Roman villas and moves through the turbulent memories of the “”Dekemvriana””\, the violent clashes in December 1944 that marked the beginning of the conflict that later escalated into the Greek Civil War\, which once haunted the old Gendarmerie building. As you walk down the grand Dionysiou Areopagitou\, you’ll uncover the influence of foreign archaeological missions in Koukaki\, before stopping at the Theatre of Dionysus to discuss the deep-rooted link between Democracy and Ancient Drama.\n\nThe route winds past the Asklepieion and the legendary “”Klepsydra”” spring\, eventually reaching the Areopagus (Mars Hill)\, where St. Paul once preached before the “”Altar of the Unknown God.”” Dr. Papadopoulos masterfully assembles the fragments\, from the Golden Age to the 1821 Revolution and the Civil War\, connecting history to personal experience in a way that makes the stones speak.\n\nMeeting Point: Acropolis Metro Station\, Makriyianni exit.\n\nThis activity is only available in Greek.
