The Museum of the City of Athens

Bob and I are continuing our adventures in visiting museums in Athens. Today we went to The Museum of the City of Athens. In it are many pictures of Athens from the 1800's there are also replicas of the city and many items from the 1800's. The museum itself is inside an old mansion built for the first king of Greece after the war of independence. There are dining sets and pieces of furniture set up throughout the rooms as well.
The outside of the museum.

Check out Lord Byron in the picture above the piano.
