The Hellenic Motor Museum is a specialist car museum a short walk from the National Archaeological Museum. Its collection covers the evolution of the automobile through more than a century of vehicles, with rotating displays from a larger private collection.
This is not the first stop for a short Athens visit, but it is a good change of pace if you have had your fill of marble and ancient pottery. Car enthusiasts will get the most from it, while families may appreciate a museum that is easier to digest than the heavyweight archaeological collections nearby.
