The Benaki Museum was founded by Anthony Benaki in 1930 and
is the largest independent museum in Greece. It is the first Greek museum which
came into being through a collector’s love for his country. Its wide collections are
constantly enriched by purchases, and contributions by its many benefactors.
The collections of Greek art, spanning from prehistory to the modern times, is
exhibited in this refurbished neo-classical building in the center of Athens.
