What is the MAC?
Since its inauguration in 1986, the MAC (Museum of Cycladic Art) has been one of the most notable archaeological centres in Athens. Its permanent collection houses more than 3,000 pieces from continental Greece, Cyprus and the Cyclades, with special emphasis on Cycladic Art of the 3rd millennium BC.

The permanent collection of the Museum of Cycladic Art is set out on three floors. Each of these floors is dedicated to a different theme:

- Ancient Greek art: this permanent collection on this floor enables you to discover the origin and later development of one of humanity’s most transcendent civilisations and the founder of democracy.
- Cypriot art: this floor address the history of the different ancient communities and civilisations that have colonised the island of Cyprus, a strategic point for the control of the Eastern Mediterranean.
