Athens Metro Station with Artifacts?

[mastichas09]

What is the name of the metro station in Athens that has the artifacts on display? I heard about it and want to see it, but I am not sure it is worth going out of my way for. Is there more than ne to see?

I love artifacts and am just looking for more detail. I will be in the city for just a few days so I am really struggling if this is worth it or not.

Called “Πόλη από Πόλη” (roughly translated to city under the city), the original archeological exhibit at the Syntagma Square metro station was first comprised of an actual burial site and other objects found during metro renovations for the 2004 Olympic Games. If you’re using the metro or viewing The Changing of the Guard, checking out this exhibit would be easy and well worth your while. Otherwise the Archeological, Benaki, Acropolis, and Cycladic museums have incredible permanent collections and very interesting special exhibits.

I would looove to see this - my parents saw it the last time they were in Greece. It seems so very interesting. I also plan t visit the museums - I have yet to visit the Benaki and Cycladic museums. Thank you for the advice!
