The National Theater was built between 1895 and 1901 in plans made by the German architect Hernest Ziller. It served as the official
royal theater for the King's invitees until 1908 when it was given for public use. In 1924
it was renamed and from "Royal Theater" was thereafter called "National
Theater." The original internal installations for the stage facilities, the lighting
and heating were among the most sophisticated of the kind for their times, designed by
Viennese mechanics and constructed in Pireus' factories.
