Kotsanas Museum: Ancient Greece – The Origins of Technologies

Visit the Kotsanas Museum of Ancient Greek Technology in the heart of Athens, just a few steps from the Greek Parliament. On a total area of 700 square meters, you have the opportunity to get to know a relatively unknown aspect of ancient Greek culture. The exhibition includes around 100 selected exhibits which tell you more about the origins of technologies, from the robot-servant and the "cinema" of Philon to the automatic theater of Heron, and from the Hydraulic Clock of Ktesibios to the Antikythera Mechanism. Enjoy a hands-on experience on fully functional models and check out the museum gift shop where you may buy handmade models, copies of the museum exhibits made by Marios Kotsanas.
