Incredible evening tour. Lots of useful information from a passionate tour guide. If you love astronomy make sure not to miss this beautiful place. The chance to look through their telescope is worth the trip alone - I have never seen Saturn so clearly. Life changing!

A fascinating historical observatory with a movable roof. Small museum collection inside. Giant telescope. Check for when educational events take place. Area around it on the hill has a wonderful view of the city.

Very interesting place. Not very big, about an hour or so to see everything. Go at night, you will be able to see some stars through the telescope.

Amazing place and really nice staff!!! Went there at 10pm, had a guided tour in the old observatory (now serving as museum), went up to the new observatory and saw the moon and the Jupiter through the telescope. And enjoy the awesome night view of Athens and Acropolis right behind the new observatory (do bring a nice camera though)

a hidden gem in Athens with great historical artifacts. We appreciated the multi-language tour options, and how accommodating they were to share star and planet views. We arrived when Jupiter just came into view late May.
