The Cultural Center Hellenic Cosmos is in Piraeus Street, the road connecting Athens to Piraeus.
The Cultural Center Hellenic Cosmos is a modern cultural center and museum that stands out for its innovative programs. Founded in 1998, it was an initiative of the Foundation of the Hellenic World and the Efraimoglou family.
Its total area of 60 acres hosts a wide range of activities related to Greek history and culture such as:
- Interactive exhibitions
- Virtual Reality Tours
- Educational programs
- Conferences
- Theatrical performances
- Documentaries
- Artistic events
In 2006 the inauguration of "Tholos", took place. This is the new semi-spherical Virtual Reality theater where digital productions of the Foundation of the Hellenic World are presented.
The "Dome" is a hemispherical building with a capacity of 132 people and unique technological infrastructure, which resembles a planetarium but is much more sophisticated. Only by experiencing it from the inside, will you realize the uniqueness of the experience offered. The projections are interactive and controlled by the viewer, with themes like "Journey to Ancient Olympia", "Journey to the Ancient Agora" etc, making the viewer feel that he is actually in a fantastic journey through time.
The newest addition to the Cultural Center Hellenic Cosmos is the "Theatron", a multi functional space aiming to host contemporary artistic creation and expression.
"Theatron" features a unique audio-visual equipment and is designed so that it can accommodate the most demanding productions: theatrical and musical performances, concerts, conferences, corporate events, exhibitions and spectacles with particular stage demands.
A visit to the Cultural Center Hellenic Cosmos will undoubtedly leave you more than satisfied.
