Detail InformationEdit

The Presidential Mansion in Athens, Greece, is the official residence of the President of the Hellenic Republic. It previously served as the Royal Palace, until the abolition of the monarchy by referendum in 1974. The decision to construct the building which is used today as the Presidential Mansion was taken in 1868. That year, King George I’s son, Constantine, the heir to the throne, was born and the Greek state decided to present him with a private dwelling, when he came of age.
Twenty one years later when Constantine married princess Sophia of Prussia, the state assigned the planning of “The Crown Prince’s Palace”, as the building became known, to Ernst Ziller. Building began in 1891 and was completed six years later in 1897. The use of the building as a Palace was interrupted in 1924 when the monarchy was overthrown and a Republic was declared.
It was then used as the Presidential Mansion until 1935 when the monarchy was restored and the King returned. Since 1974, when democracy was restored after a seven year military dictatorship, the building has been used as the Presidential Mansion and the residence of the President of the day.
