Monument to the Unknown Soldier and Nighttime Changing of the Guard - Athens Greece 2024
The Presidential Guards, Evzones, guard the Unknown Soldier’s Tomb in front of the Hellenic Parliament 24/7.
They stand proudly in perfect stillness, motionless and expressionless, regardless of weather conditions.
Evzones are an elite unit of the Greek army, and it is the highest honour for a Greek Guard to be selected as an Evzone. The guards are handpicked according to their height (they must be a minimum of 1.9 meters), in excellent physical condition, have stamina and are disciplined and proud to serve their beloved country.
Two Evzones every hour on the hour guard the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in one-hour shifts around the clock, three times every two days. They work in pairs to perfectly coordinate their movements in slow motion to preserve the guard’s circulation after standing completely still for one hour.
From Monday to Saturday, the Evzones dress in their khaki summer service uniform or their black winter uniform, depending on the season.
Every Sunday at 11.00 am there is a Grand Change. All the guards ceremoniously march from the barracks to the Unknown Soldier’s Tomb with a marching band.
For the Grand Change on Sunday and National holidays, the Evzones are also in the “Foustanella”. The uniform includes the kilt-like fustanella which has 400 pleats, representing the number of years Greece was under Turkish occupation.
Changing of the Guard: every hour on the hour outside Parliament house on Leoforos Vasililisis Amalias Street and it’s free to see.
Enjoy the video!
