At the junction of Stadiou and Dragatsaniou Streets, one will find an imposing, beautiful and relatively simple building which even refers to an ancient temple. The building was designed by the architect A. Plumistos in 1956 and today it houses the central services of the Ministry of Interior.
The eight-storey mansion on Stadiou Street also has its own interesting history. When construction began, it had already been transferred from the State - which owned it until then - to the Church, on the basis of the agreement of September 1952, as recorded in the Government Gazette, and has been paying rent ever since. The State ceded 163 properties, most of them in the centre of Athens, Piraeus and Thessaloniki, in exchange for Church properties in various parts of the country.
The Stadiou Mansion also hosts various shops on its ground floor as it is located in one of the most central points of the centre of Athens.
