The Kotsanas Museum of Ancient Greek Technology presents a new permanent exhibition space, in the heart of Athens, within walking distance of the Hellenic Parliament Building (Syntagma). Visitors will have the unique opportunity to get to know a relatively unknown aspect of ancient Greek culture through the exhibition "The Hi-Tech Inventions of Ancient Greeks", which includes about 100 selected exhibits from the robot-servant and the "cinema" of Philon to the automotive-puppet show of Heron, and from the hydraulic clock of Ktesibios to the Antikythera calculating mechanism.
