The study of archaeological material displayed in the exhibition halls of the Acropolis Museum can only be done following preliminary consultation and planning with the Museum’s staff. 

Studies in the Museum’s archaeological storerooms can only be carried out during regular working days and hours; and, again, only after preliminary consultation and planning with the Museum’s staff.

To schedule a day and time for the research, contact the Museum at least three weeks in advance.
