Description

The Acropolis Museum is one of the world's most important museums, hosting a vast collection of beautiful objects from thousands of years ago, world-famous for its dozens of stunning ancient Greek statues, like the celebrated Acropolis Caryatids, and of course the most famous exhibit of all: the Parthenon Marbles.

On this tour of the Acropolis Museum, you'll discover that it's also home to two Athenians from the Golden Age of antiquity, whose everyday lives you'll explore as you move through the exhibits. Their personal stories are hidden in the things they left behind, the artifacts that we encounter at the Acropolis Museum today. Through a series of fun hands-on games and activities, led by our expert guide, you will really discover what life in ancient Athens was like and see the similarities - if any - with life nowadays.

As you put the pieces together and complete the fun activities in the Acropolis Museum, you'll learn a lot about ancient Greek history and culture. When you've finished this Acropolis Museum adventure, you'll know what made ancient Athens so special, and you'll understand, too, the modern relevance of its crowning glory, the Acropolis.
