The dynamic implementation of restoration and maintenance works at the Athens Olympic Sports Complex “Spiros Louis” (OAKA), a landmark venue for Greek sports, which began with the restoration of the metal structures at the OAKA entrances and is being carried out by the AKTOR Group, was highlighted in a social media post by the General Director of OAKA, Mr. Konstantinos Chalioris.

Specifically, Mr. Chalioris stated, “Intensive restoration and maintenance work continues on the iconic metal structures designed by Santiago Calatrava at the Olympic Complex. Utilizing specialized techniques such as sandblasting and hydroblasting, we are restoring both the structural integrity and the aesthetic brilliance of the metal elements, thereby reviving their architectural grandeur.”

“These are not merely metal structures — they are living symbols of the cultural and architectural heritage of the 2004 Olympic Games. With dozens of active construction sites and various projects underway, both large and small, we remain steadfast in our commitment to the rejuvenation of one of the country’s most significant modern landmarks,” added the General Director of OAKA.
