The War Museum was established by the Hellenic State in 1964 in order to honor all those who fought for the country's freedom.

This is another Museum that is very close to the centre of Athens and Syntagma Square! If you like wars and battles, you will love it! There are many unique collections, like uniforms, awards Very well organised exhibition covering all periods of country history and warfare from Alexander the Great to today. Lots of unique exponents, including uniform, awards and decorations, military weapons and equipment etc. You will find halls with animated movies showing the most important events (like the battle of Marathon etc).
