The Zappeion is a large, semi-circular building that is used today for exhibitions. Originally constructed with great pomp on the occasion of the Athens Summer Olympics in 1896 for competitions and fencing, this is the first edifice in the world specifically built for the modern Olympic Games. It’s well worth a visit if you have time.
