Omonoia Square, Central square in Athens, Greece
The square forms a major intersection of six main streets in Athens, featuring a circular design with a central fountain and modern architectural elements.
Established in 1846 as Palace Square, the site was renamed Omonoia Square in 1862 to symbolize reconciliation between opposing political groups in Greece.
The square functions as a meeting point where different communities gather, reflecting the multicultural character of modern Athens through its shops and restaurants.
The Omonoia metro station beneath the square connects multiple subway lines and bus routes, making it a central transportation hub for Athens.
The 2020 renovation introduced a fountain with water jets and LED lighting systems, creating patterns visible from surrounding buildings and streets.
