Nerantziotissa station
Nerantziotissa station is a complex of two train stations located in Marousi, a northern suburb of Athens, Greece. The first is a station of Line 1 of the Athens Metro, and the second is a Proastiakos (suburban rail) station. It takes its name from the nearby Byzantine church of Παναγία Νεραντζιώτισσα (Panagía Nerantziótissa), which was itself named for the abundance of bitter orange trees in the area. The station is near the The Mall Athens, a large American-style shopping mall. It is also close to the Athens Olympic Sports Complex.
