Hellenic Motor Museum

The Hellenic Motor Museum is an automobile museum in Athens located within three floors of a central shopping mall. The exhibition displays over 110 vehicles from Greece and abroad, ranging from early steam-powered cars to modern sports models.

The museum was founded in 2011 by the Theodore Charagionis Foundation to preserve and display vehicles. This was the first place in Greece where such an extensive automotive collection was made accessible to the public.

The collection tells the story of how cars became part of everyday Greek life, showing which models were popular at different times. You can see how transportation shaped the way people lived and traveled through the decades.

The museum is located within a shopping mall, making it easy to combine your visit with other activities in the area. The layout is straightforward with clear paths through each floor, allowing you to move through the exhibition at your own pace.

The museum features a working Formula 1 simulator where visitors can experience what it feels like to drive a racing car. This hands-on technology is rarely found in Greek museums and adds an interactive element to the visit.
