The Acropolis got €60 mln worth of visitors in 2023

Revenue from visits to the Acropolis went up by €14 million from the previous year’s €46 million, the culture minister said on Monday.

Speaking to lawmakers in Parliament, Lina Mendoni said that “upgrades of all services,” such as a new electronic ticket system, have driven a “constant increase” in the iconic historical site’s revenues.

Responding to objections at a decision to increase the cost of admission, which opposition lawmakers say will go up as much as 300%, Mendoni said that the monument’s new pricing falls in line with policies established in other European Union member states, and that it will be implemented come April of 2025.
