Marousi or Maroussi ( Greek: Μαρούσι, also Αμαρούσιο Amarousio) is a suburb in the northeastern part of the Athens agglomeration, Greece. Marousi dates back to the era of the ancient Athenian Republic; its ancient name was Athmonon (Ἄθμονον) and it represented one of the 10 Athenian sub-cities. The area held a main ancient temple, where Amarysia Artemis, the goddess of hunting, was adored, and the city's modern name derives from that of the goddess, Amarysia, which denotes the origin of the worship back in Amarynthos, Euboea.

Marousi is situated 13 km (8 mi) northeast of Athens city centre. The municipality has an area of 12.938 km ². The built-up area of Marousi is continuous with those of the neighbouring suburbs Pefki, Kifisia, Vrilissia and Halandri. Within Marousi lies the biggest forest in urban Athens, "Dasos Syngrou" (also "Alsos Syggrou"). The Athens Olympic Sports Complex, the largest sports complex in Greece, built for the 2004 Summer Olympics, is located in the southwestern part of the municipality.

The main thoroughfare is Kifisias Avenue, which connects Marousi with central Athens and the northern beltway Motorway 6. Marousi has 3 stations on Athens Metro Line 1, and two suburban ( Proastiakos) commuter railway stations: Nerantziotissa station and Kifisias railway station.

Marousi is also home to a number of prestigious public ( Peiramatiko Lyceum Anavryton) and private educational institutions.

Marousi's favourable infrastructure ( Motorway 6, Athens Metro, Proastiakos suburban railroad) has led to strong economic growth. The main offices of the Greek subsidiaries of several multinational corporations, including Kodak, Bayer, Kimberly-Clark, Siemens, Takeda Pharmaceutical Company, Microsoft and Nestlé, and the ANT1 television studios are located in Marousi. The managing office of Consolidated Contractors Company, a large Middle Eastern and International EPC Contractor, is located in Marousi. The Mall Athens, one of the largest shopping centres in southeastern Europe, is situated in the southwestern part of Marousi.[citation needed ]

Vivartia has its head office in Marousi.

Google Athens is headquartered in Marousi.

The new building of Greek Ministry of Education is located in Marousi, in the district Neratziotissa. In the same district is located the School of Pedagogical and Technological Education, a Greek university. The German School of Athens is also located in Marousi.

Maroussi is the place of Greek Olympic Sport Center. It is located in the southwest of the suburb, in an area that is named Kalogreza. Maroussi has also some sport gymnasium such as Dais Indoor Hall and Maroussi Indoor Hall that are used by local teams. Local teams are Maroussi B.C. with long-time presence in A1 Ethniki Basketball and A.C. Doukas with many titles in Handball and Futsal. The Olympic Stadium is used as home stadium by famous clubs of Greek football, currently by AEK and in the past by Panathinaikos and Olympiacos.

Marousi is twinned with the following cities:

Spiridon Louis (1873-1940), a Greek water-carrier who won the first modern-day Marathon at the 1896 Summer Olympics, thereby becoming a national hero

Prince Michael of Greece (1938-), also known as Michel de Grece, son of Prince Christopher of Greece and grandson of King George I of the Hellenes. Prince Michael lived in Marousi from his marriage to Marina Karella in 1965, since late 1970s.[timeframe? ]

We are a group of 9 students. We meet once a week in the library room of our school to work on projects related to tangible and intangible cultural heritage! As a group we communicate very well, though we have different characters. Οur engagement with cultural heritage gives us joy and brings us closer!
The phrases which inspire us:
"Monuments have no voice. They must have yours."
"Maintaining one's culture, values and traditions is beyond price."

Hello, my name is Christina and I am 14 years old. I was born in Marousi where I also
live. In my free time I like listening to music, because music is something that relaxes me and
makes me feel free. I have been dancing since I was six years old. Dance is a way of
expression and anyone can dance provided that they need to have passion for it. This is
something that we all need to follow in our lives, because doing something without passion
is a waste of time. I also enjoy hanging out with my friends. Friends are a special part of my
life, which plays an important role. So, when we hanging out we like eating Greek souvlaki
like pitoguro in our language. We can say that it is like a sandwich with meet ,tzatziki,
onions, tomatoes, potatoes and whatever you want to put in it. It’s very delicious and if one
day you come to Greece, you need to try it. I am very happy for being in this project because
I have never taken part before in such a programme like this.
