National Kapodistrian University of Athens - Central building
The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, officially founded in 1837, forms part of the so-called Athenian Trilogy – the epitome of neoclassical Greek architecture on Panepistimiou Street. It was the first University of the newly liberated Greek state and the first one in Southeast Europe.
