Ethniki Amyna (Εθνική Άμυνα) is an Athens Metro Blue Line (Line 3) station with an island platform, situated close to the Ministry of National Defence and the Ministry of Transportation and Communications. When the Metro first opened, it served as the terminal station for all trains to that direction (Syntagma station being the other end of the line at the time).

Cultural works

Ethniki Amyna has four art installations: three sculptures at the platform level and one large installation in the concourse.

  • Dimitris Kalamaras: The dead fighter (platform level)
  • Clearhos Loukopoulos: Stele (platform level)
  • Costas Koulentianos: Nouvelle Generation IX (platform level)
  • Costas Tsoklis, Underground Park (concourse)
