Renovation works are underway at the former Academy building in Heraklion, Crete's largest city and capital. Local authorities have provided an update on the project's progress and confirmed a completion timeline is in place. The historic building, located in central Heraklion, is being restored for future public use. While the site itself is not currently accessible to visitors, the surrounding area remains open and the project is expected to add a new cultural or civic space to the city center once finished. Tourists visiting Heraklion can continue to explore nearby attractions including the Archaeological Museum, the Venetian harbor, and the old town without disruption from the ongoing construction works.
