Every week, visitors can travel back to ancient Eleusis, guided by the Acropolis Museum’s archaeologist-hosts, starting at the temporary exhibition “Eleusis. The Great Mysteries”. Visitors have the opportunity to navigate through an exhibition space designed in the form of the actual site’s main hall, the Telesterion; discover important artifacts related to the Eleusinian Mysteries; and explore age-old connections between Eleusis, Athens and the Acropolis.
