New Acropolis Museum

The New Acropolis Museum is now due to open on June 20, 2009. The project will have cost some 129 million Euros (see IHT).

Further details are available from Bernard Tschumi, the architects responsible for the building.

Renewed calls for the return of the Parthenon sculptures can be expected.
