Weiler Building, Historical building in Makrygianni, Greece
The Weiler Building displays German neo-romantic architecture with stone masonry walls, situated across from the New Acropolis Museum in central Athens.
The Weiler Building, designed by Bavarian military engineer Wilhelm von Weiler in 1836, first operated as an Army Hospital before becoming police barracks in 1920.
The Centre for the Acropolis Studies inside the building houses plaster casts and original terracotta architectural fragments from different periods of Acropolis history.
Located at 2-4 Makriyianni Street, the building maintains regular visiting hours and offers research facilities focused on Acropolis architectural studies.
The structure's original coated stonework was revealed during the battles of 1944, exposing the natural construction materials that remain visible today.
