The Book Arcade was founded in June 1996 by the Society for the Promotion of Education and Learning (Filekpedeftiki Eteria). It is an attempt to create a Cultural Centre in Athens, as a contribution to detecting and reconciling via books, the greatest ideas of the past, present and future. The Book Arcade is located in Arsakeio Megaro (Hall). The Hall is designed and carries a strict classical architectural style with a simplistic decor. It was built based on the architectural design of Lysander Kaftantzoglou (1811-1885) Architect and was the home of the Arsakeio group of schools.
