Directions
The Jewish Museum of Greece is located at 39 Nikis Street, in the center of Athens, very close to both the historical and the commercial center. The renovated neoclassical building of the Museum is easy to find, as Nikis Street is parallel to the central – and busy – Filellini and Amalia Streets, which in turn are very close to Syntagma Square.
Access
By Metro
The easiest way to come to the Museum. Get off at Syntagma station and look for Mitropoleos Street, at the bottom of the square, where the shops are. Nikis Street is the first diagonal of the Metropolis. Follow it to the left to number 39, which is only a 3-minute walk away.
By bus or trolley
Several bus and trolley lines serve you, depending on the area you are starting from. Ask for those who stop at Syntagma or Philhellenion. In the first case, follow the instructions above. In the second case, get off at the “Russian Church” and immediately turn right into a small pedestrian street (Kydathinaion). Turn immediately right again and you will find the Museum on your right hand.
By tram
The Museum is served by line 1, Zappeio-Neo Faliro. Go down to Syntagma and, turning your back on the National Garden, cross Amalia Avenue. The first parallel is Filellinon and the second Nikis street. The Museum should now be on your left.
On foot after a walk in Plaka or Monastiraki
If you walk in these neighborhoods it is impossible not to find Adrianou, one of the most touristic streets of Plaka. Follow her until you meet Kydathinaion. Turn your back on the Acropolis and walk along Kydathinaion until you find Victory Street – about 4 minutes. You will find the Jewish Museum across the street to your left.
