The Metropolitan Cathedral of Athens will reopen its gates on 2 July after several years of restoration. The restoration project, which was affected by earthquakes and stalled the project, will include an installation of external lighting to bring out the Cathedral’s best features.
The installment of external lighting was the last project left before the completion of the Cathedral’s restoration, static enforcement, and conservation of decoration.
The head of the Technical Service of the Archbishop of Athens, Theodoros Chamalis, said the sanctification of the restored church will take place on 2 July, with a Holy Mass taking place on 3 July, which will be the first mass in seven years.
