Monastiraki metro station

Along with Perissos it was the last Line 1 station to be renovated and opened on 10 August 2004, just three days before the games began.

This curve is the main factor contributing in the characteristic gap that is formed between the train and the platform.

The rest of the walls are painted white and are decorated with characteristic circular lamps.

Each roof is supported on multiple green Ionic iron columns located on both platform's edges.

An additional pathway leads from the northbound platform to a specially-built space were antiquities are exhibited.

Line 1's concourse level, essentially the old station's building, is located on Monasriraki square and has multiple arched exits.

These included, among others, the covered riverbed of Eridanos which is visible behind the northbound line 1 platform.

The ceiling of line 1's concourse level is covered by "The World in my Hands" by Leda Papaconstantinou.
