New Acropolis Museum
-
This all-glass $100 million showpiece, designed by internationally renowned architect Bernard Tschumi and opening in 2007, is meant to give a fitting home to Greece’s greatest treasures: the marble sculptures that once adorned the Acropolis, especially the mighty Parthenon. (Until the New Museum opens, these sculptures will still be housed in the small on-site Acropolis museum.) (see New Acropolis Museum, Archaeological Sites - New Acropolis Museum and Museums - New Acropolis Museum)
