Akadimia (Greek: Ακαδημία, pronounced [a.ka.ðiˈmi.a]), literally "Academy", is a neighborhood in central Athens, Greece.

Located directly north and slight west of Syntagma Square, it is bounded by Akadimias Street, Panepistimiou Street, Solonos Street and Stadiou Street. It is named after the Academy of Athens, since this was the first educational building to be built there in 1859. One of the busiest areas of Athens, many important buildings are found here.

The Panepistimio metro station serves Line 2 of the Athens Metro, while there is a tram stop at Plateia Klafthmonos.
