Revolution ‘21 Reframed

Revolution ‘21 Reframed

The Anniversary Program of the National Historical Museum (NHM) entitled “ΕΠΑΝΑCYΣΤΑΣΗ ‘21” (Revolution ‘21 Reframed) aims to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Greek Revolution. The Program is of pan-Hellenic importance and seeks to highlight the ideas, causes, persons, events and results of the Greek War of Independence, as they were formed through conflicts and compositions of different interests and traditions.

It includes three pillars: the main exhibition in Athens, exhibitions in ten cities of the region in collaboration with local agencies and institutions and a floating exhibition that will travel to 23 Aegean islands. The Program also includes the cutting of the commemorative medal for the 200th anniversary of the Greek War of Independence. This multifaceted project is under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture and is supported by important bodies and institutions.
