The Athens War Museum stands as a powerful tribute to Greece’s enduring military legacy, housing over 400,000 artifacts that span from prehistoric weapons to the heroic battles of the 20th century. Located in central Athens near Evangelismos metro, visitors can explore indoor galleries of revolutionary flags, Byzantine armor, and detailed dioramas, while the standout outdoor display lets you step close to retired Hellenic Air Force jets and tanks. Greek City Times recommends this immersive experience for anyone interested in Greek resilience and history—perfectly combined with nearby museums like the Benaki and Cycladic.
