The purpose of the virtual museum EPANASTASIS-1821 is to communicate important events of the Greek Revolution and to highlight aspects of the nation’s revolution war, as depicted in archival material, books and artistic representations in Greece and abroad. The proposal is addressed to the general public and aims, through the use of innovative educational tools of full-immersive virtual reality, to enhance the user’s experience and to create a more effective understanding of the impact these events had on our people, the evolution of the Greek state and its influence in the European world.
