Presidential Mansion Gardens Reopen to the Public

With its century-old trees and rare bushes and plants, the gardens of the Presidential Mansion will reopen to the public every Sunday from October 9th.


The gardens of the Presidential Mansion will reopen to the public for the first time since the start of the coronavirus pandemic on Sunday (October 9) and will be open to the public from 10:00 to 16:00 every Sunday, except during public holidays.

The 2.5-hectare site, adjacent to the 19th-century building designed by Ernst Ziller where the president’s office is located, contains more than 140 types of plants, trees and bushes. Some of the trees are more than 100 years old.

 

The public will be able to enter from 2 Vasileos Georgiou B Street. Any changes to these arrangements will be published (in Greek) on the presidency’s website.
