The Changing of the Guards in Athens Greece: The change of the guards takes place every hour by the military unit whose members stand proudly in perfect stillness in front of the Parliament. But every Sunday morning at 11 am, you can watch the official ceremony of the changing of the guards with the official dresses. They guard the grave of the Unknown Soldier that represents the common memory of all unknown soldiers killed at war. The changing of the Greek guards occurs every day at the top of the hour. From Monday to Saturday the Evzones will be dressed in their khaki summer service uniform or in their black winter uniform.
We had a great time in Athens. Unfortunately, when we attended the change of guards ceremony at the Parliament, it was raining and the ceremony was done completely behind a truck. We still enjoyed the show!
