During the construction of the Monastiraki Metro Station, several archaeological finds were uncovered, dating as far back as the 8th century B.C. and up to the 19th century A.D. The finds shed light on the city's ancient past and provide insights into the city's development through time. There are three main parts to the archaeological exhibit in the station: the uncovered riverbed of Eridanos (the ancient 'River of Hades'), the ceiling artwork 'Time in My Hands' by Leda Papaconstantinou, and a display of one of the unearthed buildings.
