Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: The museum houses more than 8,000 items from different periods of ancient Greece, from the Neolithic to Roman times. The collection includes unique mosaics, ancient ceramics, and famous sculptural portraits that tell about everyday life on the island.
Punti salienti: The collection of Mycenaean vases with lively scenes is unique and hard to see elsewhere, especially a preserved fragment with the legendary mythological battle. In the museum, you can also admire marble grave steles found in a nearby cemetery, with exquisitely detailed carvings of animals and symbols.

- It is important to wear comfortable shoes as you will be walking on uneven museum cobblestones.
- The best photos are from the inner courtyards with natural light.
- Avoid weekends when the museum is the most crowded.
- Interactive displays are great for children and make the visit more engaging.
