[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The Committee for the Conservation of the Acropolis Monuments (ESMA) was formed in 1975; it is an interdisciplinary committee, set up by the Ministry of Culture, which is responsible for designing and supervising the contemporary conservation and restoration interventions in the Acropolis monuments. Since then ESMA has been persistently working by coordinating interventions, research, and the documentation of works. In addition, it has focused on spreading and using for educational purposes the restorations cultural material that has resulted from the works and has played an important part in the history of monument restoration.<\/p>\n

To mark the forty-fifth anniversary of the formation of ESMA, the Documentation Office and the Office of Information and Education of the Acropolis Restoration Service (YSMA) designed and realised a series of digital activities, which retrieve documents from the extensive Archive of the Service and present the various and different ways of approaching the restoration works.<\/p>\n
