Zappeion is an Athenian mansion built at the expense of the Greek public benefactor Evangelos Zappas (1800 - 1865) to serve as the venue for Greek artistic, agricultural and industrial fairs. Harilaos Trikoupis later (1887) decided to move elsewhere the Protestant cemetery that was situated there and to create a garden around the building. The Zappeion, designed by the architect Theophilos Hansen was built between 1874 and 1888 and is related to the first Olympic Games in Athens in 1896. Issue date: November 3, 2003
