Right opposite of the Athens University is the building known as the Yellow House, a simple neoclassical structure which stands out against the dark glass background of a modern building and reveals a totally different aspect of the architecture of the period. This is the residence of the Soutsos-Rallis family and the building is one of the oldest on Panepistimiou Street. It was completed in 1842 or 1843 and it is a fine example of bourgeois architecture.
