Shabbat Times in Athens

For Friday 2026-07-10

Halachic note

Athens follows the local custom of lighting candles 18 minutes before sunset. The Shabbat-end time shown uses tzeit hakochavim (8.5°). A 72-minute alternative is also shown for those who follow that opinion.

Athens is home to a historic Jewish community blending Romaniote and Sephardic traditions. For Shabbat, visitors will find central synagogues and a kosher restaurant, though planning for meals is essential as there is no eruv in the city center.
