Agora Atrium

 

The Agora (Greek: Aγορά, Agorá) was an open place of assembly in ancient Greek city-states. Later, the agora also served as a marketplace where merchants kept stalls or shops to sell their goods.

The Agora, the marketplace and civic centre, was one of the most important parts of an ancient city-state. In addition to being a place where people gathered to buy and sell all kinds of commodities, it was also a place where people assembled to discuss all kinds of topics: business, politics, current events, or the nature of the universe and the divine.

Like the agora of ancient times, The Agora Atrium is your place to mingle with other museum patrons, meet up with past acquaintances and perhaps make a few new friends.
