Abstract: 

Grigore Tocilescu, professor of Ancient History of University of Bucharest, organized a student trip to Greece in 1901. This travel took place in the context of re-established Greek-Romanian diplomatic relations. Around 300 people – students, professors, doctors, journalists, lawyers – visited the most important archaeological sites and museums in Athens and Greece, including Acropolis and Olympia. The Greek and Romanian press covered the student visit to Athens.
