5. The House of Bouboulina Built around the end of the 17th Century, the building is shaped like a Π, a detail which at that time indicated the importance of the owner. Bouboulina was a heroine that played a significant role in the 1821 War of Independence. Visit her house, which now operates as a museum to admire its wood-carved Florentine ceiling, 18th and 19th century furniture, interesting collection of old weapons, fine porcelain and rare books. • The House of Hatzigiannis Mexis Today the house hosts a museum exhibiting relics from the War of Independence, letters written by war heroes like Kolokotronis and Athanasios Diakos, a folk art collection and the relics of Bouboulina. The house was built between 1795 and 1798, and was donated to the Greek state in 1938 by the heirs of the Mexis family. The objects on display represent more than 4,000 years of the island’s history.

This lovely church was built between 1824 and 1830 by the Spetsiote captain Ioannis Koutsis, to commemorate and honor the defeat of the Ottoman fleet during the naval battle on the 8th of September, 1822.

About Atene

Atene pone l'Acropoli sopra una capitale moderna ed estesa, dove rovine antiche, vicoli in pendio e lunghe serate in taverna convivono.

Il Partenone corona l'Acropoli, affiancato dall'Eretteo con il suo portico delle cariatidi, e il Museo dell'Acropoli ai piedi della collina espone le sculture trovate sulla rocca. Intorno, l'Agorà antica, il Tempio di Zeus Olimpio, l'Arco di Adriano e lo stadio Panatenaico di marmo rendono facile percorrere a piedi la città classica.
