\n The Museum of Cycladic Art organised a special walking tour exclusively for the Cycladic Friends in Vrysaki, the historic Athenian neighborhood that disappeared with the discovery of the Ancient Agora. The tour took place on Saturday, November 23.\n <\/div>\n \n \n<\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n

The year 1931 marked a milestone for the city of Athens and for archaeological research: excavations began that would reveal the Ancient Agora, the center of social life in the ancient city. At the same time, however, an entire neighborhood of 400 homes and 5,000 inhabitants beneath the Acropolis\u2014Vrysaki\u2014vanished from the map.
\nDuring the walk through Plaka, the Cycladic Friends traced the remains of this lost and, for many, forgotten neighborhood, bringing it back to life through photographs, testimonies, and their footsteps along the streets of Vlassarou, Agioi Apostoloi, and Agios Filippos.<\/p>\n

The tour was conducted by historian and guide Ioanna Zacharopoulou.<\/p>\n\n \n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
