Byzantine and Christian Museum, Athens

The Byzantine and Christian Museum hides in one of Athens' loveliest gardens: the Villa Ilissia, a romantic Tuscan-style villa built in 1848 for the Duchess of Plaisance beside the long-vanished Ilissos river. Around its fountain court and orange trees, low modern wings sunk into the garden hold the national Byzantine collection — icons, mosaics, marble screens and frescoes spanning the eleven centuries of the Byzantine world, from the fall of Rome to the fall of Constantinople. It completes the great museum row along Vasilissis Sofias, and its garden may be the quietest green room in central Athens.
