Designed by architects Molfesis and Genias, it proved one of the Games' more straightforward construction projects.
Works commenced in October 2001 and were completed in January 2004 at a cost of about £56m.
The arena was inaugurated on 16 January during the Athens International Judo Open.
Among the facilities on site are warm-up areas, athletes' rest rooms, training areas, medical areas and national federation offices.
The venue will also host judo, along with boccia, during the Paralympics.
