In 1964, the Hellenic State decided to found the War Museum, wishing to honor all those who fought for our country and its freedom.
The design of the museum was undertaken by a team of distinguished scientists, headed by Professor Thoukidides Valentis of the National Technical university of Athens (N.T.U.A).
On July 18, 1975, the President of the Hellenic Republic H.E. Constantine Tsatsos and the Minister of National Defense Evangelos Averof-Tositsas inaugurated the Museum.
Its various activities include the publication of books, the establishment and maintenance of monuments and memorials and the aid to services and agencies all over Greece.
The Museum’s exhibition areas are distributed over four levels (floors) and present images of Greek history from antiquity to the present.
