Eric, and the rest of my French friends, this is for you. This magnificent building, over 120 years old, houses the french embassy. The mansion has a very interesting history, you can read all about it in the embassy's webpage.L’Ambassade de France à ATHENES (in french)
Το κτίριο της πρεσβείας (in greek)
Where is it on the map? (mouse over the yellow square)

Efkaristos Ovelikios, that is a nice attention. And like you say this building has really an interesting - and complicated - history.
I don't know why but ambassadors always live in wonderful houses in the best locations... That is so unfair!
I'll be honest I did not know where the Greek embassy was located in Paris and I just Googled it and it seems to be in the uppoer 16th arrondissement which is also one of the most exclusive area. I could not see the building though.
We should set an embassy theme day one day...
